Video: Liverpool's Lucas Leiva, Simon Mignolet pranked by Jon Flanagan and 'chauffeur'

Liverpool midfielder Lucas Leiva and goalkeeper Simon Mignolet were victims of a recent prank by teammate Jon Flanagan.

The duo believed that they were being chauffeured from their Melwood training ground to Anfield for a photoshoot with car manufacturer Vauxhall.

In reality, though, they were being taken on a prolonged car journey by Liverpudlian barber and actor John May, who is a friend of Flanagan.

During the cab ride, the faux chauffeur asked the players a bunch of bizarre questions and also broke out into song on occasion.

Flanagan, who was in on the joke, struggled to contain his laughter while in the back seat with Lucas.
