Italian international, Federico Marchetti, was left upset after a car wash employee wrecked his £300,000 (about R6.2 million) worth Ferrari 812 Superfast car having crashed it against a barrier.
The Genoa goalkeeper was engaged with the club during a training session when the incident happened as the car was left bashed.
UK outlet SunSport is reporting that the star decided to get his ride cleaned at the car wash and then tasked the employee to deliver it to the training ground.
Unable to handle it, the Ferrari 812 Superfast ride was left mangled after it was crashed into a safety barrier as well as five other parked cars.
Pictures show police officers as well as recovery workers attending to it, but the driver was unharmed.
Marchetti wrote after the incident:
“I am very sorry about what happened. Thank God no-one was hurt, and that is the most important thing.
“I've read a lot of bad stuff written. Let's leave it alone - I hope I won't have to read it anymore."
