12. Jordan Ibe
Many analysts tipped Ibe for the top when he first broke through with Liverpool as a teenager. However, he failed to push on and the Reds sold him to Bournemouth. The hope was that Ibe would flourish as a talented player in a less pressurized environment. Unfortunately, his off-the-field problems affected his progress. One incident saw him crash his car into a cafe in London.

Fortunately, nobody suffered injuries. However, rather than deal with the situation, Ibe ran away from the scene, abandoning his Bentley. What he hoped to achieve, nobody knows. In the end, he created a real problem for himself because the coffee shop sued him. A court fined him almost $9000 and banned him from driving for 16 months. Not the best way to meet an elite athlete.
