Professional footballers are known for taking private private flights with their teams before and after Champions League games, so passengers on a budget EasyJet flight would have been stunned to see an England international sitting among them.
Chelsea star Reece James was pictured on the 10pm flight from Milan Malpensa to Gatwick Airport on Wednesday evening.
Though the defender earns a staggering £250,000-per-week, James decided to take the cheap route home, on a flight which at the same time next week, would cost just £29.
James was travelling alone after spending an extra day in Italy, in the aftermath of suffering an injury in Chelsea's 2-0 victory over AC Milan at the San Siro.
