Does Cesc Fabregas Still Use His Verizon Credit Card He Got In College?

Because those things had a maximum $3000 limit with an interest rate of “pay until you die” and it’s the only logical reason why absolutely none of his credit cards worked during a dinner the other night. Doesn’t this guy make enough money to carry wads of cash and have bodyguards secure his every move? Rookie.

The Arsenal midfielder, who earns around £80,000 a week, was dining with two women at top Soho private club Studio Valbonne when his bill of just under £300 arrived.

An onlooker said: “He tried one card, it failed. Then another. It failed again. After much faffing he sent an aide out to get cash.”

We’re told: “Cesc told the girls to order whatever they wanted. They even had two rounds of lobster soup and salmon galore.
“He apologised profusely and paid when his aide turned up with the money.”

We have no idea what “faffing” means, but we’re assuming the common faff involves gathering each and every waiter at the restaurant to take off one glove, slide it towards their fingertips and slightly glide the glove in a ceremonious slap across Fabregas’ face. Seriously, that’s what we’re envisioning.
