It's clear from this snap that the credit crunch hasn't
hit footballer Frank Lampard. The Chelsea star had loadsamoney in
his wallet as he headed out for the day from his West London
home.
Mind you, the midfielder has just signed a five-year,
£151,000-a-week contract - so he can afford to stuff the odd
£10,000 in his back pocket.
You can only wonder what he needed all those £50 notes for: the
shopping? Or perhaps a gift for his lovely partner Elena Rivas?
The 30-year-old has spent the summer in drawn-out negotiations
with Roman Abramovich's club over his future. He was even rumoured
to be joining ex-Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho at Inter Milan.
But now that his contract has been confirmed, making him the
highest paid player in the Premier League, he is clearly ready to
get spending.
