Chelsea star Tiemoue Bakayoko, 23, was driving along Blundel Lane near the Cobham facility at around 3.30pm when the crash happened on Thursday afternoon- escaping serious injury.

Police arrived at the scene at 4.40pm and have confirmed that luckily, no other vehicle was involved in the incident. Press pictures reveal the extent of the damage to Bakayoko’s vehicle, with the windscreen shattered and the roof caved in, which was caused when he veered off the road on Blundel Lane near the Blue’s Cobham training base.

Unfortunately, this isn’t the first time this season that there has been a car accident involving the Blues, as last month, a young fan was run over as he tried to collect autographs outside Cobham training centre.
