Sheffield United issue statement over reports Lys Mousset involved in Lamborghini crash

Photos circulating on social media today are believed to show the centre forward’s three-year-old orange Lamborghini Aventador, worth around £300,000, after a collision on Abbeydale Road South this morning.

South Yorkshire Police said an orange Lamborghini was involved in a collision with a number of parked vehicles.

Two men in their 20s were arrested on suspicion of drink driving.

They were later released under investigation after police questioning.

It has not been revealed whether anyone was injured in the crash.

South Yorkshire Police said: “Police were called at around 12.10am this morning following reports of a collision on Abbeydale Road South, Sheffield.

“It is reported that an orange Lamborghini was involved in a collision with a number of parked cars.

“Two men in their 20s were arrested on suspicion of being over the prescribed limit. Both have been released under investigation while enquiries continue.”

In a statement, Sheffield United said: “Officials at Sheffield United are aware of images circulating on social media and are currently making internal enquiries.”

Mousset signed for the Blades last summer from Bournemouth in a £10 million deal.

The 24-year-old Frenchman was signed by United on a three-year deal.

He was born in France to a Senegalese father and a French mother and is eligible to play for both countries.

He made his France U20 debut on the international stage in 2015.
