Former Manchester United star Jesse Lingard has now spoken out after he was investigated by police for breaking an unusual rule in South Korea.
Earlier this week, the attacking midfielder uploaded a video to social media of himself riding an electronic scooter in South Korea, where he now plays for FC Seoul after departing Nottingham Forest as a free agent at the end of the 2022/23 season.

The Englishman joined the K League 1 side in February this year, but despite being at the club for seven months' now, he has seemingly not yet familiarised himself with all of the country's rules.
A new regulation that had been established earlier this year prohibits the riding an e-scooter without a licence.
Doing so would result in a fine of 100 000 won (about R1 300), while riding without a helmet would bring about a 20 000 won (about R265) fine.
After the video, which has since been deleted, was uploaded to social media, Seoul police initiated a preliminary investigation into the matter, according to the Metro who cited The Korea Times.
Taking to social media, the former West Ham United loanee has since admitted that he was not familiar with the rules.
"Obviously, I was on an e-scooter yesterday, driving around for a couple of minutes on the e-scooter," Lingard explained.
"I didn't know the rules of wearing a helmet or having a licence as well.
"In England, and probably in Europe as well, you can just pick up an e-bike or e-scooter off the street and just start riding it.
"To anyone visiting South Korea, obviously, you've got to check the rules.
"It can be dangerous. Safety first for everyone. Helmets on and, obviously, I won't do that again."
