Memphis Depay shisha pipe shame: Manchester United flop pictured puffing on shisha pipe equivalent to smoking 200 cigarettes
The photos, which were taken last Sunday, may harm the winger's frosty relationship with boss Jose Mourinho
MEMPHIS DEPAY has been caught puffing on a shisha pipe in photos that may harm his frosty relationship with boss Jose Mourinho.
The Manchester United winger, 22, is seen puffing on the Middle Eastern pipe — equivalent to smoking 200 cigarettes — and also drinking with three females in his native Rotterdam.
Depay and a pal were snapped in the Shisha and Tapas Lounge near the Dutch star’s apartment at around 6pm.

The £25million flop, out of favour at Old Trafford and tipped for a January move to Everton, drank soda water and smoked an entire pipe.
A source said: “He was there with a friend watching the Ajax game and they each had a shisha pipe to themselves.”
On their website, the British Heart Foundation states: “Like cigarettes, shisha contains nicotine, tar, carbon monoxide and heavy metals, such as arsenic and lead.”
It is said one single shisha session is equal to smoking around 200 cigarettes.
Aston Villa striker Gabby Agbonlahor, Manchester City’s England winger Raheem Sterling and Bournemouth’s on-loan Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere have all been caught in the act.
The source added: “I’ve seen Memphis in there a few times, he recently got a flat here and he comes in when it’s quiet to smoke shisha.
“He was here with a Dutch rapper called Bollebof not too long ago.”
Manchester United last night refused to comment.
Depay made a promising start to his United career following his June 2015 move and was even handed the iconic No 7 shirt.
But his career has since stalled and he has not made a single Premier League start this season.
