BAD-boy Celtic goalie Artur Boruc partied with rogue Poland team-mates in a late-night booze bash which left a posh hotel room WRECKED.
The controversial goalie was booted out of the squad’s five-star base with two fellow stars after breaking a strict curfew.
And Boruc, 28, now looks certain to miss his country’s opening two World Cup qualifiers as he was sensationally AXED from the team.
Last night, a source in Poland said: “The players got drunk and Artur Boruc was definitely one of them.
“They basically had a party and drank lots of alcohol.
“Other guests rang reception and said they were loud. The hotel staff reacted and they discovered the room was destroyed -especially the bathroom.”
The Scottish Sun can reveal that Boruc, along with team mates Radoslaw Majewski and Dariusz Dudka, disobeyed a direct order to not leave their rooms in the Ukraine on Wednesday night.
Beenhakker’s boys had just lost 1-0 in Kiev and the Dutch coach was in no mood to let his players relax.
But Boruc and co sneaked out of the rooms at the five-star Opera Hotel in the capital and joined several journalists for a drinking session in which the hotel manager claimed the bathroom was wrecked.
Polish Football Federation spokesman Zbigniew Kozminski last night confirmed: “Boruc, Dudka and Majewski took part in an alcohol party with journalists and acted unprofessionally.
“This is why they have been excluded from the national team and our disciplinary committee will now investigate this issue.
“These three players will now NOT be called up for our forthcoming World Cup qualifying games against Slovenia and San Marino.”
However, Boruc denied any wrongdoing claiming people were out to get him and the team to unsettle them.
Boruc said: “It is not true. Someone wants to destroy the atmosphere of the national team.”
But another source in Poland insists the claims are true.
They said: “The players got drunk and Artur Boruc was definitely one of them.
“Leo Beenhaaker said after the game the players were supposed to stay in their rooms on the fifth floor.
“But they didn’t listen to him and went to the sixth floor which was a room of a Polish TV journalist.
“They basically had a party and drank lots of alcohol.
“Other guests rang reception and said they were loud. The hotel staff reacted and they discovered the room was destroyed especially the bathroom.”
The hotel manager refused to be named but says he has footage of the three players entering the room.
The fall-out between Boruc and Beenhakker has sent shockwaves around Poland.
Boruc, capped 37 times, is a huge fans’ favourite after his heroics in this summer’s European Championships.
Poland’s World Cup qualifying campaign gets underway in two week’s time with the nation praying the rift between the pair can be healed.
Majewski and Dudka both refused to comment on reports of the incident.
This not the first time Boruc has hit the headlines with his behaviour.
He has constantly landed in hot water with police and officials for winding up opposing fans.
In April he faced an SPL probe after he wore a ‘God Bless the Pope’ t-shirt during an Old Firm match at Parkhead.
He paraded in the top just seconds after his side beat Old Firm rivals Rangers in a crucial league match - to the fury of the away support.
It was the latest in a line of incident where the keeper - who signed from Legia Warsaw - for ‘irresponsible behaviour’.
Two years ago he was cautioned by police for inflaming the crowd at another clash with Gers at Ibrox.
He angered the home support by blessing himself and laughing at them.
He was rapped after it took cops ten minutes to restore peace in the stand.
Last year he apologised to Rangers fans after he ran about Ibrox with a flag saying ‘Champions’ - after the Parkhead side landed the title.
It was the FIFTH time in 16-months the star had been accused of potentially causing bother with opposing fans.
Months later he was also slammed by Hibs and Dundee Utd fans for making rude gestures to them.
In 2005 he was again reported to police by angry Aberdeen fans when he was accused of making obscene gestures to them at Pittodrie.
Earlier this year Boruc became a dad when his wife Katarzyna gave birth to their son Aleks.
