KEEPING IT REAL

The surprisingly modest cars of new-found FA Cup stars

A massive contrast to the flashy rides of the Premier League, these professional footballer's vehicles wouldn't stand out on a packed motorway.

IN THE world of professional football, it is hard to look past the lavish lives its stars often live.

Unimaginable salaries lead to updated wardrobes, bigger houses, and of course, flashy cars.

While the odd exception still exists, it is rare these days to see a Premier League player cruise around in anything worth less than twice the average Briton's car.

Arsenal's forward Alexis Sanchez is one such star example, snapped recently heading out for a drive in his plush £150,000 Bentley Continental GT - tough gig, hey.

For the masses of players in the lower tiers of English football, however, their transport situation is not quite so glamorous.

Take fifth-tier club Lincoln City's defender Sean Raggett, for example.

The recent FA Cup hero will face Sanchez on Saturday as Arsenal take on Lincoln City in the quarter finals of the FA cup.

And while the Chilean will undoubtedly turn up to the Emirates in his shiny grey Bentley, Raggett will be arriving in his own car - one that holds a price tag totalling just over three percent of Sanchez's Bentley, at around £4,700.
