Carragher denied entry to an Ibiza nightclub for wearing flip-flops

Jamie Carragher was forced to think outside the box after recently being denied entry into a nightclub.

The Sky Sports pundit, 47, has been enjoying some downtime over the summer months ahead of the coming campaign.

On Friday Carragher shared a snap alongside his wife of 20 years Nicola, with the pair enjoying a picturesque boat trip on the Spanish island of Ibiza.

However, it appears that the former England international's evening wasn't quite over yet.

In a video shared to X by non-league footballer Leon Greenland, Carragher appears to be denied entrance into an establishment for failing to have the appropriate footwear.

Seemingly undeterred by the initial rejection, Carragher then appears in a subsequent video having managed to make his way inside after reportedly purchasing some ill-fitting trainers.

In a video circulated widely on social media, Carragher can be seen hilariously flaunting his new shoes before offering some sage advice.

'Hey, I got in!' He can be seen saying.

'What do I always say on Sky? Find a way to win. We find a way to win.'

The incident comes after Carragher was seen dressed as Willy Wonka for his daughter Mia's 21st birthday.

The Champions League winner ditched his usual pundit attire for a purple velvet coat, top hat, and oversized bow tie as he channeled the eccentric chocolate factory owner in celebration of his daughter's milestone.

Mia, who was dressed as Poison Ivy, marked her birthday in style with a lavish party surrounded by family and friends. But it was her dad’s eye-catching outfit that stole the show on social media.

The 47-year-old posed proudly in full costume, sharing photos and videos from the party on Instagram.

He wrote: 'What a great night for Mia's 21st birthday fancy dress party,' alongside a heart, dancing and beers emojis.
