Putting footy down ... Arsenal star André Santos
SOCCER star André Santos was facing jail last night after he allegedly sped away from chasing cops at up to 130mph.
The Arsenal defender is also said to have weaved in and out of rush-hour traffic in his Maserati GranTurismo supercar.
He was finally nicked by the Gunners’ training pitch in London Colney, Herts, and could be jailed if guilty of dangerous driving.
Santos gunned his black Maserati to stretch ahead of pursuing police, it was claimed yesterday.
Cops were said to have struggled to keep up as the Brazilian international shot away at speeds of up to 130mph in the £110,000 car.
Police eventually stopped the 29-year-old left back 500 yards from Arsenal’s training ground.
