A Lamborghini Wayne Rooney lent to Carlos Tevez when the Argentine first joined Manchester United is up for auction. Rooney reportedly offered the supercar to his new strike partner after Tevez was mocked by team-mates for driving a club-supplied Audi.
According to ESPN, Tevez recounted: "I turned up at the club in the Audi that the club gave me and everyone bugged me about it, as if it was a Fiat 600. I spoke to Rooney about it and crazy guy that he is, he told me 'take the Lamborghini'.
"So I took it and I went without registering it around Manchester with the car, this car that he gave to me."

According to Tevez, he collected the car from Wayne's house and used it for 10 days. The 2007 Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder was originally priced around £160,000.
It will go under the hammer with Iconic Auctioneers on August 25 at the Silverstone Festival. The car has had only had three registered keepers, the first being Rooney, and is estimated to fetch £50,000 - £60,000.
Powered by a 5.2-litre V10 engine producing 552bhp, the LP560-4 model can go 0-62mph in 3.7 seconds on its way to a top speed of 202mph. Iconic Auctioneers say: "Carlos Tevez was a world renowned star too, playing in his home country as well as the UK, Italy, China and ultimately returning home to Argentina late in his career.
"So this car offers a special opportunity, to own a car that once belonged to two world renowned football players. Provenance does not come more gilded that that."
