‘Worth more than 25p now’ – Confused Jonjo Shelvey signs Newcastle fan’s discount lemonade can as he leaves training

Shelvey, who had just taken part in Eddie Howe's first session, obliged as he rolled down his window and held his hand out.
But instead of receiving some paper or even a shirt, the ex-Liverpool man was instead handed a 25p can of lemonade.
The other supporters laughed as the tin made its way into Shelvey’s vehicle.
But despite looking confused, the playmaker calmly penned his autograph on the tin.
Shelvey then drove off as fans cheered the newly-adorned can of pop.
And one even quipped: “It’s worth more than 25p now!”
