Paul Pogba’s Rolls-Royce seized by police for having French number plate
Manchester United star, Paul Pogba’s Rolls-Royce has been seized by police after he was pulled over for driving the exotic car with a French number plate.
Police officers caught Pogba driving his Wraith Black Badge on the M56 and stopped him when he exited near Manchester Airport on Thursday according to The Sun UK.
The police then seized the special edition car on the A4538 near Hale, Cheshire while Pogba was loaded into the back of the patrol car.
According to UK laws, cars from abroad that have been in Britain for more than six months in a year must be registered with the DVLA and fitted with UK plates except if the owner is a UK resident then they must register their car within two weeks of importing it.
Pogba, 27, will have to pay £150 to get his car back within seven days or will have to pay £20 extra for every day it’s held in police custody.
A witness told The Sun:
“We noticed the car going past us on the motorway because it really stands out, but we had no idea who was in it.
“It was already indicating off when the police pulled in behind it and then put the blue lights on after they were safely off the motorway.
“We couldn’t believe it when we saw the driver was Paul Pogba. It looked like he did everything that was asked.
“We wondered what it was all about, he didn’t look like he was speeding or anything.”
