England and Arsenal midfielder Declan Rice has been banned from driving, after he was caught speeding twice on the same road in a week, as reported first in The Mail.
Per the report, Arsenal's £105 million man was clocked driving at 37mph in a 30mph zone, on the A217 near Surrey during January 3rd 2025.
The 26-year-old was then reportedly caught speeding on the same stretch of road just five days later, this time driving at 49mph in a 40 zone.
Rice is not said to have been in attendance at Crawley Magistrates Court on Tuesday when his punishment was handed down, where he received a £2,185 fine.
The former West Ham player reportedly already had six points on his driving licence, and this latest speeding offence brought his total up to 15 overall. As a result, Rice now faces a six-month ban from driving.
Declan Rice is one of the most high-profile players in the Premier League, and is expected to play a starring role for Thomas Tuchel's Three Lions at next summer's World Cup.
Despite beginning his international career with Ireland, the 26-year-old has gone on to represent England on more than 70 ocassions, scoring six goals.
