Fulham defender Kenny Tete swapped a luxury supercar for a lime bike to get home after his side’s defeat to Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
The full-back was spotted riding the pay-as-you-go bike after yesterday’s match by supporters, one of whom recorded the moment and posted it on TikTok.
In the short clip, Tete was seen circling the road, apparently waiting for directions. He then prepared to kick away after being instructed to do so by a steward.
Tete was also seen carrying a large box in the bike’s basket and appeared in good spirits despite the result as Cole Palmer’s first-half penalty had settled the derby.
The 28-year-old had started the showdown and played 64 minutes.

However, he was helpless to prevent his side sliding to a hard-fought 1-0 defeat, with Palmer stepping in from 12 yards after Issa Diop fouled Raheem Sterling.
The result leaves the Cottagers 13th in the table, eight points above the drop zone.
Tete joined the club from Lyon in 2020 and has become a regular at Craven Cottage, having made 92 appearances and scoring four goals so far.
Due to a groin injury, he only played nine league matches this season.
According to the Evening standardFulham are willing to extend his contract for another year to protect his value if clubs look to make a splash this month.
His current contract expires in the summer, but if he were to take the option to sign him until July 2025, they could essentially guarantee a higher transfer fee.
They are expected to trigger the clause if Tete opens talks on a pre-contract with a foreign club, which he is allowed to do with his deal in the final six months.
