England and Chelsea footballer, Callum Hudson-Odoi is in a fraud probe after crashing his Lamborghini.

Odoi's £215,000 supercar collided with a ten-year-old Renault driven by a junior doctor.

Odoi aged 20, and two others began filming the doctor while asking him to admit liability for the crash but the doctor refused, claiming his car had been hit from behind by the £100,000-a-week player driving the Lamborghini Urus.

After the crash in Wandsworth, South West London, in August, Callum did not produce documents and was not under investigation but is now being probed after the doctor revealed what happened.

The doctor said: “There was a big jolt when his car hit me.

“I recognised Callum the moment he jumped out of his car. He was wearing his full Chelsea kit and was angry.

“They started videoing me but I wouldn’t admit it was my fault.

“I waited for his brother to turn up. They mocked me for driving an old car.

“My insurance company received documentation for a Ferrari and then a Mercedes. I want police to investigate.”

Officers said inquiries are “ongoing” into an offence alleged by the doctor. Bradley, who is Odoi's brother called the allegations “nonsense.”

A lawyer for Callum said: “The driver made an allegation to police against a third party, not Callum.”
