Who is the Premier League star who gave his boot boy a £30,000 car as a thank you gif
After a season shadowing a star footballer, a lucky boot boy might find himself the recipient of some souvenir kit. Or maybe even a pair of the player's old boots.
James McPike got a Mercedes. The football trainee, who had been assigned to Birmingham City midfielder Olivier Kapo, was stunned when he was thrown the keys of the £30,000 car and told to keep it.

Yeah nice act! Let's hope the young lad is responsible when he drives it and doesn't wind up hurting himself or anyone else for that matter. As regards your boss - does he earn £1.5m pa? If so why not tell him about this story and cross your fingers

He's paying for a year insurance as well

So the French international drove the disbelieving 20-year-old to his home, handed him the spare keys and log book, and then insisted on paying for a year's insurance.
