Convicted paedophile and former Sunderland winger Adam Johnson has set up a football team named after himself in prison, according to ?the Sun.
The 29-year-old now plays for a side named Johnson’s Superstars, made of of fellow convicts, on a pitch at HMP Moorland where he is currently jailed. Johnson also apparently insists on taking his teammates on a 10-minute prior to kick-off to make sure his side are fully prepared for their matches.
Johnson scored in his last game as a professional footballer in a 2-2 draw against Liverpool before being locked up for sexual activity with a girl aged 15, and has swapped crowds of 44,000 supporters for a handful of prison guards watching on.
?“It will irk a lot of people that Johnson looks so at ease,” a source told the Sun.
“He could be mistaken for a footballer enjoying time with his pals in any park across the country.
“He’s not exactly enduring a living hell in there. He has a kudos as a former England international and Premier League star. It sticks in the craw a little.”
Johnson is allowed to pull on an orange strip twice a week, facing a huge concrete wall behind the goal. His side are only allowed to play teams from his wing due to fears that he could be attacked by other prisoners.
Johnson was convicted of sexual activity with a child in March 2016 and sentenced to six years in prison.
