Claire Rowlands, mother of Manchester City star Phil Foden, has put her £3million Prestbury mansion up for sale just one week after facing vile abuse from Manchester United fans.
The 45-year-old was subjected to appalling chants from Red Devils supporters during last Sunday's 0-0 draw at Old Trafford.
Sections of the home crowd targeted Foden's mother with offensive chants before the England midfielder was substituted in the 58th minute, calling her a 's**g'.
The luxury property, located in the affluent Cheshire village of Prestbury, is now being marketed with offers invited in excess of £3m, reports The Sun.

The mansion features an impressive array of luxurious amenities, including a swimming pool, private cinema, gym and wine cellar.
The property even boasts a state-of-the-art golf simulator among its high-end facilities.
Foden purchased the home four years ago and initially lived there with his mother Rowlands and father Phil Sr.
The 24-year-old Manchester City midfielder later moved to a separate nearby house with his fiancee Rebecca Cooke.

The couple are raising their three young children in their own property, while Rowlands remained in the Prestbury mansion until now.
The mansion has previously been at the centre of neighbourhood disputes over noise and disturbances.
Rowlands sparked controversy after hosting what neighbours described as a "deafening" two-hour fireworks display in the back garden.
Residents compared the professional-grade pyrotechnics to displays at Sydney Harbour Bridge or Disneyland, with the show lasting from 6pm until 8.30pm.

"There was no prior warning, causing immense distress to residents' dogs and babies," said one annoyed neighbour.
Local residents reportedly wrote an open letter "deploring the antics of the Fodens and the effect it is having on our lives."
The property has faced other complaints from neighbours who labelled Foden "selfish" and urged Manchester City to intervene.
In July, residents claimed he hosted a loud party that continued until midnight.

Complaints mentioned "booming gangster rap" playing late into the evening and his Doberman guard dog barking throughout the day.
"They do throw some wild parties there and it does get noisy. People don't mind them enjoying themselves, but this is ridiculous," one local told the Daily Mail.
"It's beginning to be known as a party house and there's always complaints about the noise and loud music!"
Foden is yet to comment on the chants from United fans.
