Wayne Lineker has decided he wants to settle down, but only if the girl is 30 years younger than him and is willing to give up her job, has a dog with a passport and is a keen geographer
Wayne Lineker has left the internet cringing after posting an advert to find himself a new girlfriend.
The club owner, who is the younger brother of Gary Lineker, is after someone much younger than him who likes to cook, is willing to give up her career for their relationship and doesn’t have any « baggage ».
The 58-year-old said he didn’t want a woman his own age because it would « look weird » and ideally wants a 30-year-old, though would graciously accept someone who is 28 or 29.
After he shared the advert to Instagram he was slated by his followers, with one calling it the « worst thing I’ve ever read ».
He wrote: « So, my family have decided I need a girlfriend for my own sanity and health…so here’s my criteria. »
Then he went on to list all of the attributes he is looking for in a woman, including normal things like « strong nice loving personality ».
But then things took a turn for the weird, as he continued: « You must like older men but only me…You have to be a worldie and above 30 (Ok 28 29 could work) but not my age as that would just look weird.
« You must like to travel and to fly business class and stay in incredible hotels. Be prepared to give up your career or job or at least be able to work from a laptop on a tropical beach somewhere.
« You will need to spend the summer in ibiza and the winter in Dubai with 2 weeks in Uk for Christmas and new year with the families and holidays to the Maldives…
« No baggage as mine are all grown up. A dog is acceptable but will need a passport.
He also said he wanted them to like only house music and R&B and Netflix.
Wayne continued: « You need to be confident enough to be able to go to the front of the queue in nightclubs and accept a table and free drinks from the owners.
« You will need a driving license to share a Bentley and a Lamborghini Jeep (pending) ..you must never have shared a teeth whitening post!! »
He doesn’t want the woman to be on dating sites or Only Fans and he wants them to keep fit and healthy, as he « will soon ».
Wayne added: « Accept and love my children and grandchildren and realise no more kids for me.. (never say never though). »
His personal assistant has to buy everything for the woman and she must accept Wayne’s friends.
He finished: « One last thing. Your geography needs to be on point as girls that think Lincoln is in Wales is not good. Be intelligent but not boring. Outgoing suits. »
It’s unclear whether Wayne was joking or not, as he finished the post with the hashtags #wifeywhereyouat #banter #real.
But the list of requirements was slated by his followers, with one writing: « Worst thing I’ve ever read. »
A third agreed: « Girlfriend might be the wrong term. A girlfriend will have her own personality, values, interests and tastes. »
