Chelsea star “brutally beaten by six thugs” outside nightclub after trying to bed another footballer’s lover [Photos]

Chelsea forgotten star, Danny Drinkwater was reportedly attacked by a gang of six thugs after he allegedly tried to chat up his fellow footballer’s girlfriend during a night out.

Drinkwater is currently on loan to English club Burnely after head coach Lampard told the England star he wasn’t part of his plans.

The English man has already suffered torn ankle ligaments in the fight outside Manchester’s Chinawhite club early last Sunday (Sept.1). Which rulled out of action for about four weeks.

He is alleged to have approached Scunthorpe United player Kgosi Ntlhe ‘s girlfriend, a move which initially caused a
confrontation between the two footballers before he was attacked.

The former Leicester City player was later thrown out of the club by security before he was attacked by six thugs who then allegedly jumped on his ankle as they chanted ‘break his leg’ while blood spilled ‘everywhere’.

A source told reporters:

“Danny had been celebrating a friend’s birthday and by his own admission got
incredibly drunk.

“He knows he has let himself down big time. He was extremely drunk and to be honest doesn’t remember much of the incident. His mate had to fill him in the next day.

“Danny repeatedly tried to chat up a stunning girl in the club and wouldn’t leave her alone.

“He tried it on a few times before she told him to shut up by saying she was there with her boyfriend. He confronted Danny in the club, and punches were thrown.

“Both men were kicked out, and whilst Danny was outside things turned really ugly.
“Some other lads really started on him.

After a series of verbal exchanges they knocked him to the ground. He was
then hit with an object about the face and body. They were raining blows on him and jumping on his ankle.

“Danny is absolutely mortified now and realises he can no longer put himself in a position where these incidents happen, regardless of who is at fault.

“He had been focused on performing for Burnley and understands people will now question this. He is devastated. His injuries were significant. He looks a total mess.”
