FOOTIE love-rat Jermaine Pennant has been caught offside again — fibbing about his age and height as he hunts for dates.

The ex-Liverpool star, dumped by his reality TV partner for cheating with a dominatrix in May last year, says on his Hinge profile that he is 34.

But he has lost six years — he was born in January 1983 and will be 41 in nine days.

The 5ft 8in former winger also wrongly lists his height as 5ft 10in.

There is also no mention of his colourful personal life, including a string of broken relationships, allegations of cheating and his self-confessed reluctance to be faithful.

A source said: “Jermaine has a cheeky side to him but lying about his age and height is not a great start when he’s trying to impress women.”

The talkSPORT pundit is looking for dates again after we revealed last month that he had split from TV star Jess Impiazzi, 34.

She was told by pals that he had taken the flame-haired dominatrix to his hotel room during a stag do in Ibiza.

But he seems to have forgotten his wild ways on his Hinge profile in which he lists his simple pleasures as “sofa, movie, wine”.

He may also be understating it a little when he asks potential hook-ups, “Don’t be boring live a little.”

Jermaine, who has appeared on Celebrity SAS and Celebrity Big Brother, also shares a series of holiday snaps in which he is decked out in shorts, a shirt and sunglasses.

Another sober image shows him in a smart suit and tie.

But if anyone takes him on, they might struggle to tame one of football’s wildest spirits.

At 15, he was sold by Notts County to Arsenal for £2million — a then-record for a trainee.

His career never quite reached the expected heights and in 2005 he was jailed for drink-driving and played while electronically tagged.

Off the field, he dated glamour models and actresses — but, by his own admission, struggled to remain faithful.

In January last year, he was declared bankrupt and living in Jess’s apartment in Surrey.

Friends hoped he was finally settling down and the couple were having fertility treatment as they tried for a baby.

Jess, who appeared in Towie and Ex on The Beach, even tried to move on from his alleged stag do fling in Ibiza — but said she soon suspected he was sending flirty messages to other women and ended their two-year relationship.

In 2022, Jermaine revealed he had ADHD, which he blamed for his impulsive actions.
