Cristiano Ronaldo's £1.7 million Bugatti Veyron was crashed in Majorca, but it's currently unclear who's responsible.
Yep, just as Wagatha Christie wraps up, it seems there's a new mystery for football fans to sink their teeth into: who crashed Cristiano's super expensive car?
And before you guess, no it wasn't the footballer himself – but the real kicker is that it might be one of the player's employees, and we'd imagine a pretty tense staff meeting is imminent.

Reports of the incident emerged from local paper Cronica Balear last night, 20 June, that an unidentified employee of the footballer crashed that car.
Thankfully no one was hurt and police are said to be investigating, but it's unclear which member of Cristiano's team is responsible.
Shedding a little light on the incident, one source said: “The car smashed into a wall but there was only material damage with no one injured and the driver accepted full responsibility for what happened.
“The information about who was behind the wheel and what occurred is registered on a police database and is there for a court or officers to access if any further investigations need to be conducted.

“But it is more a case of the information needing to be registered so the owner of the property that was damaged can put in a compensation claim and use the police report as a back-up in case there is any dispute down the line about how the damage was done.”
Another insider added: “The accident happened on a minor road near Joan March Hospital.
“The car appears to have come off the road and has hit a wall which forms part of the protection to a house with a gas canister deposit behind it.
“An employee of Cristiano’s was apparently driving at the time and not the footballer himself.

"Cristiano was not at the scene when officers arrived and nor was the person who officers were told had been driving the car at the time of the accident."
To make things worse, the crash occurred while the footballer was on holiday, soaking up the sun with his family before he restarts training.
The family is said to be enjoying their time on the island, taking full advantage of Cristiano's super yacht and the incredible surrounding area.
It is the first time that Cristiano and his partner Georgina Rodriguez have holidayed with their daughter, Esmeralda, whose twin brother died during childbirth earlier this year.
