Andy Carter, senior winners’ adviser at the National Lottery, said: “What a night for UK EuroMillions players, as a single ticket-holder has scooped tonight’s life-changing £55m EuroMillions jackpot.”
“This is the second EuroMillions jackpot win in the UK so far this month, after another lucky ticket-holder won an incredible £111.7million in the draw on Friday June 2.
“Players are urged to check their tickets and to give us a call if they think they are tonight’s lucky winner”
The huge prize would leave the lucky winner wealthier than Spurs striker Harry Kane.
England’s captain registered £51million on The Sunday Times Rich List.
Kane reportedly earns £200,000 per week, netting more than £10.4million per year.
The 29-year-old bumps up his wealth with a lucrative sponsorship deal with Nike.
Kane could look to earn even more money by eyeing up a move away from Tottenham Hotspur during the summer transfer window.
