More money than sense

Downward spiral doesn’t even begin to describe it

What is it about Brazilian football players and their careers tending to nosedive a bit in the latter years of their playing days.

We all know that the original Ronaldo got all fat after he stopped playing, but the latest antics from a former team-mate of his really take the biscuit-and we bet he would take a biscuit-a ruddy chocolate covered one too.

According to reports in Brazil former Inter-milan striker Adriano has found himself in a bit of bother after a dalliance with some ladies of ill repute in his native Rio De Janeiro.

The striker-who was once among the top players in the world-has been in a career flunk of late, and his latest disappointment was after a move to Le Harve in France fell through.

To help him get over the failure of playing in the lower tiers of French football, its reported that he allegedly spent €18k on prostitutes in a Rio de Janeiro brothel.

According to reports in Brazil the striker paid the money for 18 women for one night in a brothel situated near Copacabana.

The 33-year-old’s last competitive game was for Atletico Paranaense almost a year ago but he left the club after his contract was terminated for missing two training sessions without an explanation.
