Premier League footballer tells Laura Woods he has a crush on her live on air

Love is in the air

The Chelsea midfielder joined Woods' breakfast show alongside Ally McCoist on TalkSPORT to play a game of 'SOS'.

In the game, guests are given a number of scenarios where they are asked to pick between a teammate or manager - past or present - that would be best suited to that situation.

Loftus-Cheek's final question was the biggest of all when Woods asked him which celebrity the England international found attractive.

To the presenter's shock Loftus-Cheek responded jokingly, saying: "Laura Woods!"

Woods labelled his answer as "exceptional" and joked that she would ask for his phone number after the show.

"It’s been an absolute pleasure and I’ll get your number later!" said the radio host.

The 35-year-old is well renowned for shutting down trolls on social media with her quick-thinking.

In January, a fan asked her to come round his house while his wife was working after she asked for the best holiday destinations in the UK.

One user tried his luck at getting the ITV and TalkSPORT presenter over by inviting her to his house. He said: “Got a kids sand pit in my back garden?? Does this count?? Mrs is at work most days.”

However Woods was having none of it and quickly shot down his response, replying: “That’s what she says…”

Another incident in December last year, the presenter brutally took down a sexist troll after he told her to “get back to the kitchen.”

She had the last laugh, saying: "Ohhh Mick. Nothing screams 'I have a small penis' more than this old phrase. X."
