Manchester United's Argentine goalkeeper Sergio Romero escaped unhurt after crashing his Lamborghini on his way to training on Monday, a club source told AFP.

32-year-old Romero was seen in images posted on social media standing next to the car which was wedged underneath a roadside crash barrier close to United's Carrington training ground.

"Sergio is ok and is training as normal with the team," the United source said.

Romero signed for United in 2015 and has played nine times for the Red Devils so far this season. Among his total 53 appearances for the club, Romero kept a tally of 34 clean sheets, even though he has largely been second choice behind the team's Spanish goalkeeper David de Gea.

According to the Daily Mail, the car worth 170,000 British pounds (221,000 U.S. dollars) was owned by the United's No. 2 goalkeeper since 2017 when the club defeated Southampton to win the League Cup at London's Wembley stadium. 

As one of the best back-up goalkeepers in England, Romero's weekly salary is around 70,000 British pounds (91,000 U.S. dollars) under his current contract which runs through until 2021.
