Stephen Ireland 'building a shark tank under his kitchen floor'

After the £100,000 aquarium, the £264,000 white Bentley convertible, the pink Range Rover and the Audi R8 with a Superman badge on the grille, Manchester City's bling king Stephen Ireland has excelled himself.
The midfielder has told friends he plans to dig up the kitchen floor at his new £5m mansion in Prestbury and replace it with glass. Under that, Ireland hopes to build a giant fish tank... with a shark in it.
The bizarre plan could be even more lavish than Ireland's new home aquarium, which holds 6,000 litres of saltwater - 75 times more than an average aquarium - and features a reef imported from Fiji.
