West Ham player Enner Valencia is alleged to have faked an injury to escape from police during Ecuador’s victory over Chile last night. The striker currently on loan to Everton was confronted by police officers upon arriving at the stadium on Thursday over unpaid child maintenance bills.
Paul Marin, a lawyer for the mother of Valencia’s child declared: “It’s lamentable that certain police officers didn’t collaborate with the detention of the footballer Enner Valencia, to ensure compliance with a judicial order. If they say this man earns so much, why doesn’t he pay [the maintenance] monthly to his daughter.”

De Ripley. Enner Valencia salió en camilla, casi lo arrestan y lo llevaron con prisa a la ambulancia y así salió del estadio. Que cosas. pic.twitter.com/I7VnAWYLC3

I think they should have played a bit of Benny Hill music to accompany the clip, either the classic where he is being chased around by scantilly clad women or with it being Enner, they could play Ernie the fastest milkman in the west 😉
