Just got sued by an insurance company and lost.

 

 

He took out a policy that would have paid him out if he didn’t get selected for the german squad for the Euros in 2008 (he wasn’t first choice for Arsenal for a large part of the previous season).

 

When his selection for Germany was announced he cancelled the policy and didn’t pay the premium for it (15,000 pounds!).

 

However in the policy that he signed was a non cancellation clause.

 

So the insurance company took him to court – but all of his assets were outside of the UK. The Insurance company won but had no way of collecting.

 

 

So when he came back to Arsenal to cover for them in March this year the insurance company went back to court and the 15K was the first thing that got paid from his wages!

 

Silly t***.

 

I’m guessing that whoever was in charge of that case for the insurance company wasn;t an Arsenal fan.

 

Its estimated that 10 of the 15K went on costs but they reckoned it was worth it to set an example.
