This is the moment Premier League star Kortney Hause crashed his new, £180,000 Lamborghini through a metal school fence just yards from the front gate only hours before his team was due to play a crucial match.
Aston Villa defender Hause, 26 slammed his superfast car, which can reach speeds of up to 180 mph, into perimeter fencing of the twin Pioneer and Wisdom Academies, which are joint Islamic faith junior and secondary schools in Aston, Birmingham, close to the team’s home ground.
The accident took place shortly after mid-day on Wednesday. Later that evening Hause was an un-used substitute for Aston Villa’s home match against champions Manchester City, which they lost 2-1.
