EXCLUSIVE World Cup winning star Alexis MacAllister is fined £220 and given three points on his licence after he was caught speeding in his £130,000 Mercedes G-Wagon just hours after helping Brighton to a crucial Premier League win over Southampton

World Cup winner Alexis MacAllister has been fined £220 and given three points on his licence after being caught speeding in his £130,000 Mercedes Benz just hours after helping Brighton to an historic Premier League win. 

The 24-year-old was clocked driving along the seafront at 40mph in a 30mph zone in his blacked-out windowed G-Wagon at 2.22am on May 22. 

The midfielder had just hours earlier played 90 minutes in Brighton’s 3-1 historic win over Southampton as Roberto De Zerbi’s side qualified for Europe for the first time in the club’s history. 

MacAllister featured from the bench in the Seagulls’ 1-1 draw with Premier League champions Manchester City just two days later.

The Argentinian had months earlier lifted the World Cup in Qatar alongside eight-time Ballon d’Or winner Lionel Messi after Argentina beat France on penalties in a pulsating final.

His speeding on the A259 Marine Parade carries penalty points and the case was dealt with by a single justice procedure at Brighton Magistrates’ Court last week. 

MacAllister received a £220 fine and was ordered to pay a victim surcharge of £88, plus costs of £90. He also received three points on his licence.
