Disgraced Premier League footballer settles half a million pound tax bill after seven year court battle

Disgraced former Premier League footballer Adam Johnson has settled a half-a million-pound tax bill after a seven-year court battle.

Adam Johnson Promotions Ltd was set up back in 2007 to collect image rights for the former Manchester City and England winger, but was liquidated owing more than £523,000 to HMRC.

The Mirror has since reported that the 35-year-old's parents, David and Sonia, were listed as shareholders of the company. They each owned 50 of its 100 shares.
