Jack Grealish fined for running red light in city

**Everton star Jack Grealish has been fined after a running a red light in Liverpool.**

The England international’s Lamborghini was captured skipping the traffic signal on Leeds Street at 11.30pm on September 12, on the eve of a Premier League fixture.

Grealish played in the following day’s match against his boyhood club Aston Villa at Hill Dickinson Stadium, which saw [David Moyes’ side held to a goalless draw](https://www.clickliverpool.com/sport/everton-fc/60188-everton-0-0-aston-villa-three-talking-points-beto-jack-grealish-michael-keane/).

Police say that the 30-year-old had neglected to tell them that he or another person was at the wheel of his £210,000 supercar at the time that the offence took place.

In a statement to Liverpool Magistrates’ Court, Merseyside Police’s safer roads unit manager Kevin Scott said Grealish had ‘failed to comply’ with the request to identify.

Although the force ultimately withdrew the red light charge, Grealish was found guilty of the other offence after a letter as sent to his residential property in Cheshire.

In a closed-door hearing last week, magistrate Paul Farquhar handed him six points on his driving licence alongside £1,044 in a fine, costs and court fees.

The £100 million footballer, who has been on loan from Manchester City this season, did not enter a plea ahead of the single justice procedure on February 5.

Grealish is currently sidelined with a stress fracture in his foot which was [operated on earlier this week](https://www.clickliverpool.com/sport/everton-fc/63611-jack-grealish-gutted-after-everton-spell-ended/) and has effectively ended his season-long loan with the Blues.
