It was all of a sudden and because we were inside we couldn’t really see what it was all about.4

The 25-year-old has five goals for Stoke this season

“The next thing he ran over to a black Range Rover, got in and drove off quickly.“He pulled in to the next left from where we were, it wasn’t very far at all and the next thing he was being stopped by police.“We saw him being arrested for drink driving and then being led away by the police.”4

Berahino pleaded guilty to drink driving in 2015
