Germany world cup star fined N115m for driving without licence for three years

Borussia Dortmund star Marco Reus was fined €540,000 (N115m) for driving without a licence for three years,

A Guardian report revealed that the 25 year-old "was allegedly stopped by police several times and received speeding tickets on at least five occasions since 2011 before authorities realised he had been driving without a licence ever since."

Reus, a Real Madrid target admitted the charge and accepted the punishment.

“I decided back then to take that road but the reasons I did it are something I cannot really understand today.

'Today I know that I was too naive and that it was stupid. I have learned my lesson and this will not happen again,'' Reus said in an interview with Bild
