Guy Sebastian hobbled out of Sydney’s Downing Centre District Court on a set of crutches on Tuesday, just weeks after suffering a serious leg injury.

In May, Sebastian landed in hospital after tearing his Achilles tendon during a footy match with AFL great Brendan Fevola. 

The 43-year-old hitmaker, who is expected to take the stand this week during the embezzlement trial of his former manager Titus Day, sat in court wearing one shoe and a bandage on his injured foot.

Dressed smartly in a sharp blue blazer and black trousers, Sebastian left the Downing Centre on his own.

The singer’s polished look – complete with a leather satchel slung across his shoulder – contrasted sharply with the visible strain of each step on the crutches.

In May, Sebastian painfully tore his Achilles tendon during an ill-fated footy match.

Sebastian and Fevola teamed up to help struggling club Masala Dandenong break a long losing streak in front of a buzzing crowd at Lois Twohig Reserve.

What began as a quirky radio promotion turned into a gritty on-field performance, as Fevola and Sebastian led Masala to a tense 55–53 win over South Melbourne Districts.

However, Sebastian’s afternoon was cut short by injury with the pop star seen limping from the park in the fourth quarter.

Sebastian is set to take the stand this week in the trial of his former manager Titus Day who is defending a raft of embezzlement allegations.

Day is currently standing trial in the NSW District Court to defend against claims he embezzled hundreds of thousands of dollars in royalties and performance fees from Sebastian.

He has pleaded not guilty to 34 counts of embezzlement as a clerk or servant and one count of attempting to dishonestly obtain financial advantage by deception.

The trial commenced on Thursday and Sebastian is expected to take to the stand in ‘the coming days’, The Australian reported on Friday.

Sebastian was first managed by Day when he worked as a senior client management executive for the 22 Management Agency, the jury was told on Thursday.

In 2009, Day established his own agency 6Degrees, where Sebastian became the ‘marquee client’.

It was alleged the pair’s relationship began to sour after Sebastian discovered what he alleged to be irregularities in financial records.

It was also claimed that Day, who worked on a 20 per cent commission of Sebastian’s income after costs, failed to pay royalties and performance fees collected on the Australian Idol winner’s behalf.

The publication reported that one of the charges related to a claim that Day failed to pay Sebastian $187,000 – a performance fee for his support act slot on Taylor Swift’s 2013 Australian tour.

During the first day of Day’s trial on Thursday, Crown prosecutor Brett Hatfield SC informed the court that Sebastian had placed a ‘significant trust’ in his manager, who then ‘abused’ that trust by embezzling his money.

Aside from Sebastian, Day has also managed a raft of high-profile clients including Grant Denyer, Sophie Monk, Tina Arena, and Stephanie Rice.
