www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

Graeme Souness reaped in the money after his days with the Rangers and Liverpool. With his earnings, he bought the Cheshire property, which was put up for sale a few years ago. The listed price was around £3.9 million. He offered the mansion on rent to Clichy, who had been paying him around £12,500 every month. Clichy ended up moving and the property was listed for sale.

 

Alex Ferguson — Est. £3.47 Million, Manchester City

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

Alex Ferguson’s career has seen him paid massively, netting around $70 million, so it’s not surprising he was able to buy this property in Manchester City, a place where property values are soaring.

 

Jurgen Klopp — Price Unknown, Formby, Merseyside, England

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

Jurgen, managing one of the top football teams in the world, is renting a property in Formby, and whilst the price of it is unknown, the price is bound to be millions. At only 51, he will no doubt keep produced plenty of money to one day give himself a nice retirement as well as have properties sorted for his family.

 

John Terry – Est. £6.25 million, Surrey

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

John Terry is another player who is considered to be an icon at Chelsea. The center-back is regarded as the greatest central defender of his time, and Terry even laid his hands on the UEFA Club Defender of the Year Award in 2005, 2008, and 2009. The way he led Chelsea to many a triumph was really admirable. He is now busy being the assistant coach of another English Premier League side, Aston Villa. His mansion in Oxshott has a number of luxurious features such as seven bedrooms, six bathrooms, four reception rooms, and two-bedroom staff annex. The property is worth something near to £6.25 million. John is a responsible person, and we know that he has selected the perfect home insurance policies for the estate.

 

Teddy Sheringham — Price Unknown, Chigwell, United Kingdom

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

Teddy scored over a hundred goals during his playing career and also made a total of 6 appearances in the World Cup from 1998 to 2002. After 24 years, he decided to retire, and he’s earned enough money to purchase any house he wanted to. He’s currently living in Chigwell, and it’s fair to say it he’s got it good.

 

Steven Gerrard – Est. £3 million, Ainsdale

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

He spent most of his lifetime at a Premier League club, where helped Liverpool win two FA Cups, over two League Cups, one Community Shield, the UEFA Cup, the UEFA Super Cup, and the UEFA Champions League. Gerrard owns an estate in Ainsdale and has recently renovated an entire property. The total cost of renovation was around £3 million. The amount he earned meant he never had to worry about the words bankruptcy and mortgage.

 

Frank Lampard – Est. £10 million, West London

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

Frank has also spent many years with top flight club.He became the all-time leading goalscorer for Chelsea and is currently manager of Derby County. Being a legend in the football game has made him an incredibly wealthy man, which certainly helps pay for the luxurious lifestyle he, his wife Christine and his two daughters have at his mansion which is believed to be worth £10 million.

 

Steve McManaman – Est. £7 Million, Manchester

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

Steve has impressed everyone during his days as an active player for popular soccer clubs like Real Madrid, Liverpool, and Manchester United and has never come anywhere close to appointing a bankruptcy attorney. Well, we all know that Manchester is one of England’s most expensive places and having a house there is no mean feat. But considering the bank balance that Steve has amassed so far, buying a mansion there for almost £7 million was never going to be a big deal, and to be honest, he has laid his hands on one of the best properties in the area. The gorgeous estate is one of a kind and reflects McManaman’s tastes in luxury. We would definitely love to visit it one day and take a tour around the house.

 

Wayne Rooney – Est. £20 million, Cheshire

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

As far as English football is concerned, Wayne Rooney is an icon. He is an all-time top scorer for the English Premier League club, Manchester United, and the English national team. Along with Michael Carrick, a Manchester United legend, Rooney is probably the sole player to have the Premier League, FA Cup, the UEFA Europa League, the UEFA Champions League, and the FIFA Club World Cup titles under his belt. Wayne and Coleen, his better half, is renovating their Cheshire mansion. The grand estate boasts of fully furnished bedrooms and bathrooms and sliding sash windows, aside from luxury suites. The property stands on an area of 40 acres and is worth £20 million. We guess Rooney’s financial lawyer is providing him with all the valuable suggestions that he needs.

 

Ryan Giggs – Est. £3.5 Million, Manchester

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

The Salford City co-owner and the current Wales national team manager has given his entire life to Manchester United. His contribution to the club is unparalleled and unforgettable. Giggs has probably been the most celebrated Red Devil in the history of the English Premier League side. Moving on to the properties he has under his belt, Giggs owned a mansion in Manchester and the five-bedroom abode is nothing less than a beauty. He recently put the house up for sale at a price of around £3.5 million. Old Trafford is at a stone’s throw distance from the estate, and that’s what makes the property all the more alluring. Having said that, we advise you to take the advice of your financial lawyer before you go ahead for the purchase.

 

Eric Cantona – Est. £110,000, Rolls Royce Corniche II

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

The French footballer has taken retirement long ago but is still considered as one of the greats. Eric Cantona represented many clubs like Auxerre, Marseille, Martigues, Bordeaux, Montpelier, Nimes, and Leeds United before joining the English Premier League team, Manchester United. Within a span of five years, Cantona helped United grab three Premier League titles, aside from league doubles and two FA Cup titles. We guess he was the first player who made the Number 7 Red Devils shirt attain legendary status. The jersey was later on worn by other soccer greats such as David Beckham and Cristiano Ronaldo. He owned a Rolls Royce Corniche II which he put up for auction as part of a charity. Around £110,000 was raised and the whole amount was given away to the homeless. The insurance papers were completely in order during the auction.

 

Bobby Robson — Price Unknown, Ouston

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

Bobby Robson died in 2009, unfortunately. His fans and loved ones haven’t had an easy time getting over his death, and the only thing that we’re left with is the amazing legacy that he left behind. Bobby was quite the talented individual and loved playing football, which is why he flourished in the sport. Not only was he among the best footballers of his time, but he also kept close to the sport by becoming a football manager. He held the honor of leading the England team to victory during the UEFA. His former house in Ouston is a beauty to behold and was an amazing place for him to live in. It’s known as Urpeth Hall and is simply gorgeous.

 

Les Ferdinand — Est. £2 Million, Cheshire

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

Les Ferdinand is living a life of success these days, being the manager and director of the club that he played for during his football star days. He’s earning more money than he can handle which is great because he’s got two children to take care of. This 52-year-old football legend doesn’t really care about how much his house in Cheshire sells for because he seems to just want to get rid of it as fast as he can. A possible reason behind that might be the fact that he’s started a new life with Kate Wright, and since he shared his Cheshire home with his former wife, he’d rather not have it anymore. With a bank account like his, we doubt he cares about selling it for less than what it’s worth.

 

Harry Redknapp – Est. £3.7 Million, Dorset

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

Harry Redknapp has received loads of acclamation from all quarters for his managerial skills. He is a name to be reckoned with in the world of football, and leading Portsmouth to grab the 2008 FA Cup was, indeed, one of the highlights of his career. His stints with other soccer clubs like West Ham United were equally successful, and Harry’s brilliance was something everyone loved to talk about. Redknapp has crossed three-fourths of a century but can look back at his enterprising career with content. With his earnings, he has made sure that he averts financial hassles like bankruptcy, and interestingly, Harry hasn’t yet contemplated retirement. He owns a home in Dorset, which is worth around £3.7 million and its well-furnished interiors and luxurious attributes make it a property to boast of.

 

Sergio Aguero – £262,000, Lamborghini Aventador

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

The Argentine footballer is hailed as among the best players in recent times and has a huge fan following. At club levels, Sergio has donned the jersey of the Eglish Premier League outfit, Manchester City and has netted at least 20 times in four seasons for his team. His continuous success has enabled him to notch up an impressive net worth of $80 million. Talking about his cars, Aguero has a Lambhorgini Aventador in his possession. As per his financial lawyer, he has shelled out a cool £262,000 for the car. The 30-year-old seems to have just started his career and has miles to go before he calls it a day. He was married to Diego Maradona’s daughter, Gianinna Maradona, but we think even a counseling session couldn’t stop the couple from going on separate ways.

 

Robbie Fowler — Est. £1.5 million, Manchester

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

Robbie’s only 44 years of age, but he’s pretty good with his finances. While most footballers don’t really do much with the money that they earn through their career, Robbie has been pretty active with it and has been making plenty of investments in the property market. So far, he’s got a total of 80 houses in the UK, and seeing how young he is, we wouldn’t be surprised if he gains far more than this in the upcoming years. He’ll soon have more money than his football career could ever get him, and while he’s been a great striker and even has the sixth highest amount of goals in the premier league, his future seems to be in real estate.

 

Paul Pogba – Est. £2.9 million, Cheshire, North West England

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

The French footballer has propelled his team to success in the 2018 FIFA World Cup as France went on to clinch the title after 20 long years. The popular central midfielder initiated his club career with the EPL team, Manchester United in 2009. However, he shifted to the Italian club, Juventus, in 2012, only to make a comeback at United four years later. His Cheshire nest has a lot of luxurious attributes including saunas, a media room, and a gigantic swimming pool and is currently worth £2.9 million. We have no doubt that Paul has surely chosen the perfect home insurance policy for his residence. We just hope to see Pogba reach one milestone after the other before he calls it a day.

 

Gareth Southgate – Est. £3.75 million, Yorkshire

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

The former English defender is adding on more wealth by being in charge of the national team. During his active footballing career, Southgate has helped Middlesborough and Aston Villa to clinch the League Cup and had also captained another EPL side, Crystal Palace to lay their hands on The First Division championship during the 1993-1994 season. Gareth has been bestowed upon with the BBC Sports Personality of the Year Coach Award for taking England into the semi-finals of the 2018 FIFA World Cup. He resides in a six-bedroom property which took him around £3.75 million. The luxury Yorkshire pad has features such as a wine cellar, a cottage within the premises, marble furnishings, and a private cinema room to add on. The 16th century Manor house stands on 4.5 acres. Impressive!

 

Raheem Sterling – Est. £3.1 million, Cheshire

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

The attacking Manchester City midfielder is an indispensable member of the England national team. Having played for the under-16, under-17, under-19, and under-21 squads, he went on to represent the national team at the FIFA World Cups in 2014 and 2018, as well as UEFA Euro 2016. Sterling has also helped his club, Manchester City to clinch the Premier League title in 2018. A few days back, Raheem got hold of a Cheshire village home worth almost £3.1 million and the property, with a wildlife pond, a triple garage, and a paddock, seems to be a perfect investment. The estate stands on a total area of 7500 square feet and boasts of five bedrooms and a guest house, too. An added attraction is its distance from his club’s Etihad Campus training base – roughly an hour’s drive. A pretty good investment, we say!

 

Gary Speed — Est. £1.5 Million, Huntington Hall, Chester

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

Gary Speed’s former house is gorgeous, and the fact that it was able to sell for £1.3 million is all we need to know that it’s one of the best properties in the area. The 6-bedroom home was large and comfortable, with amenities such as a tennis court and even a swimming pool in the almost six acres of garden that surrounded it. Gary used to live there along with Louise, his wife and their two boys. During his lifetime, Gary was one of the best footballers around and even rose to manage the Welsh national team! Capable, versatile and highly professional, Gary was an example to younger football players. He’ll definitely be missed by his team and the fans that he had accumulated over the years.

 

Paul Gascoigne — Est. £3 Million, Dorset

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

Paul Gascoigne has been through a lot recently and deserves his peaceful place at Dorset. Just as most celebrities are expected to set up their residence in Beverly Hills, rich people who just want to spend their time in a luxurious yet peaceful corner find themselves arriving at Dorset which meets all of their expectations. Paul is now 51 years of age who used to be a big name in the football circuit during his active years. He’s got the tenth highest paid transfer of any player when he was taken in by Rangers F.C, which should give you an idea of how good he is as a player. We’re pretty certain he’ll enjoy his retirement now without a care in the world.

 

Harry Kane — F-Pace Jaguar, Est. $281,597

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

The 25-year-old English soccer player established himself as a star when he grabbed the Golden Boot for being the top scorer at the FIFA World Cup in 2018. It seems that his career has taken a quantum leap, and he is really enjoying his days under the sun. In spite of achieving quite a huge amount of success in such a small period of time, Harry has his feet grounded and his peers praise him for his humility. Unlike other soccer stars, Kane doesn’t seem too keen about sports cars. Instead, he has a thing for classier stuff. In his garage, we found an F-Pace Jaguar which cost him something around $281,597. Aside from that, he also owns a Range Rover as well as a Bentley. You seriously need a lot of wealth in your bank account to have all these in your collection.

 

Geoff Hurst – Est. £110,000, Ferrari 550 Maranello

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

The former footballer had carved a niche for himself owing to his goal-scoring abilities. The England star happens to be the only player to have secured a hat-trick in a World Cup final. His on-the-field prowess enabled the English national team to clinch the world title by defeating West Germany in 1966. His club career started off with West Ham United, the EPL team, and led his team to grab an FA Cup as well as the European Cup Winners’ Cup in 1964 and 1965. He has completed more than three-fourths of a century and is still up and running. Lately, he put his Ferrari 550 Maranello up for sale at a price tag of nearly £110,000. The car boasts of a 5.5-liter V12 engine, and we know that Geoff had stacked up quite a cool sum in his bank accounts by selling it off.

 

John Barnes — Price Unknown, Cheshire

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

John Barnes has had the distinction of being named the Footballer of the Year twice in his career. As a left winger, Barnes has displayed mindblowing skills on the field and has proved to be an indispensable member of the English national team. According to his financial attorney, John has accumulated a bank balance of a rough $7.15 million, and we guess he can do anything he wants with that amount. We are not aware of how much his Cheshire property costs, but we were completely hooked on to it once we caught sight of the sprawling mansion. It seems John has taken extra care in incorporating some luxurious attributes into it. The cozy nest looks like a place the soccer star can spend the rest of his life in once he retires from the field.

 

Michael Owen — Est. £4 Million, Flintshire

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

Having an illustrious soccer career at popular clubs like Real Madrid and Liverpool, Michael Owen has enjoyed the limelight a long time. He received a lot of acclamation and accolades while representing the English national team on the world stage. Owen was hailed as Europe’s best player by UEFA in 2001 and has laid his hands on two Top Scorer awards. Hence, assessing his fattening bank account was a cakewalk for us. His career has rewarded him with everything he desired aside from an estimated net worth of $68 million. His property in Flintshire is a marvel, to say the least, and its beauty is indescribable. According to the property reports, Owen’s estate is worth something close to £4 million. Quite an asset, what say?

 

Ian Wright — Price Unknown, North London

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

Being an ex-footballer at the age of 55 generally means living in endless luxury and comfort, but Ian’s got a few problems of his own. He has 8 children with multiple women, and that’s made his life a little harder than it should have been. All’s not lost, however, since he still has more than enough money to support his big family and live relatively peacefully. He’s not only a footballer, of course, having also pursued the career of a radio personality. He has been on major radio stations like BBC Sport and BT Sport, and his success is evident if you look at his house in London which is proof of his spending capacity. We’re pretty certain that he’ll be able to live out the rest of his life without much trouble.

 

Andy Cole — Price Unknown, United Kingdom

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

Andy Cole had a stellar football career that lasted two decades, and we’re certain that he had no regrets about stepping into the world of football. He’s got the third highest amount of goals in the premier league, which is something he’ll be able to tell his grandchildren. He’s had a blast playing for Manchester United, but for now, this man is all about property investments. He’s already got 5 huge houses and says that the property market is a great investment because you have the least chances of making a loss. We’ll have to take his word on that, too, because his mansion in the UK is positively charming and something that we’d love to get our hands on.

 

Paul Merson – £300,000, Four Oaks

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

Any fan of football knows Paul Merson’s name. He started out by playing in the forward position but realized soon enough that playing that way wasn’t his calling, so he took on the position of a midfielder and found himself with a much more successful career after that. This man is now 51 years of age and has three children. Despite his age, he’s currently playing for the Caerau Football Club as their midfielder, having debuted in October 2017 against a match with Pontyclun. He has dabbled in managing teams as well, which we aren’t too surprised to hear since his skills in the game are astonishing. However, as great as his career has been, he hasn’t made the best decisions in life which means his bank account has suffered a lot and he almost gambled his own house away, and that would have been a disaster.

 

Roy Keane — Est. €4 million, Ipswich

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

Being one of the best Irish players around, Roy doesn’t take football lightly. This is probably the reason why he has won as many matches as he has so far. You have to be extremely talented as a player to be able to join a prestigious team like Manchester United, and that’s what Roy Keane has done. He won a total of 17 matches while he was playing with them, and we’re pretty certain that the team misses him now that he’s in retirement from football. His massive mansion in Ipswich is proof of how far he has come in life – the red brick house is able to turn the heads of any passers-by and has an amazing interior as well.

 

Paul Scholes – Est. £2.5 million, Grasscroft

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

The former Manchester United player has been loyal to the club throughout his footballing career and has scored more than 150 goals in over 700 appearances he made for the team. The English footballer has also donned the national team jersey from 1997 to 2004. Scholes even sacrificed his international career to devote more time to his club and family. With all the feats he had achieved, Paul is hailed as one of the best midfielders of his time. Wharmtown Tower, located in Grasscroft, has been his abode which recently went up for sale at an estimated price of £2.5 million. The Fairy Tale ‘castle’, as it is famously called, boasts of eleven bedrooms, a stone-built summer house, and a separate coach house as well. One of the finest investments Scholes made in his career, we think.

 

Zlatan Ibrahimović – Est. £641,000, Porsche Spyder 918

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

The LA Galaxy forward has attained many a feat in his footballing career and has led clubs like Juventus, Paris St. Germain, and Manchester United to several triumphs. He has represented the Swedish national team in various international tournaments and has charmed all and sundry with his mesmerizing skills and his ability to score goals against the toughest of opponents. We don’t know whether the 37-year-old is thinking of retirement now, but his colossal bank balance will see him through for the rest of his life. He has a luxurious taste when it comes to cars, and the Porsche Spyder 918 that he has in his garage is a testimonial of that fact. His financial lawyer revealed that the car took him almost £641,000. Talk about luxury!

 

Eddie Howe – Est. £76,000, Range Rover

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

The current AFC Bournemouth manager lives life on his own terms and is very particular when it comes to his luxurious possessions. His taste in cars is well-known and his envious collection has been the talk of the town. In his garage, you would find a Range Rover which cost him around £76,000. That’s more than what many people can earn in a year! Well, money has never been a concern for Eddie, and as per the sources, he is taking £4 million for a single season at Bournemouth. Just imagine how much he would rake in at the end of his career! As far as we know, Howe also owned a Rolls Royce worth almost £250,000. That would give you a clear picture of his net worth.

 

Alan Shearer — Price Unknown, Darras Hall, UK

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

It’s ironic that Alan Shearer doesn’t put much value on goal scoring in the sport of football since he’s the third best player if you judge him by the number of goals scored in the UEFA European championships. He’s one of the best players that we’ve ever seen, and his dedication to football seems nearly endless. He’s had the honor of playing for the English national team in the past and is living pretty comfortably in the UK right now. His successful football career has meant a pretty big bank account for him. He’ll be able to live a pretty lavish lifestyle for the rest of his days without having to be too careful about losing all his money.

 

Mohamed Salah – Est. 29,000, Toyota Camry

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

The Egyptian soccer star has stunned everyone with his dribbling skills and has notched up awesome performances for the English Premier League team, Liverpool. He has also successfully represented Egypt on international platforms. His transfer from the Italian club, AS Roma, to Liverpool was worth something around $48.7 million. His ensemble of cars is nothing short of mindblowing. In his garage, we found an Audi Q7 and a Mercedes AMG GLE Coupe. The latest addition to the repertoire is a Toyota Camry, the market price of which is close to $29,000. The rumor is that Salah might also own a Lamborghini Aventador. We are absolutely speechless and are wondering what’s coming up next. We hope the auto insurance plans are up to the mark.

 

Gareth Bale – Est. £6.5 million, Madrid

 

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

Gareth Bale started off with Southampton and then slowly made a move to the EPL side, Tottenham Hotspurs. His goal-scoring abilities caught the eye of the Real Madrid management and the Spanish giants wasted no time before picking him up for €100 million. This transfer went down in history as one of the most expensive ones in recent times. The Welshman resides in Madrid along with his fiancé and high school love, Emma Rhys Jones, and the couple shares three kids between them. The family’s mansion is worth around £6.5 million and is supposed to be a gift from his club. Having a 16,000-square-foot floor area, a gym, an indoor pool, and a six-car garage, the property once belonged to another Real Madrid star, Kaka. Bale is a teetotaler and has never needed to hire a bankruptcy attorney in his life.

 

Rio Ferdinand – Est. £2.5 Million, Cheshire

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

Rio Ferdinand has had an amazing with the English Premier League club, Manchester United as well as the English national team. Banking on his success and triumphs, Ferdinand has amassed a hefty bank balance over time. His mansion in Cheshire took him close to £2.5 million, and it’s a possession that he takes immense pride in. He has spent some great moments with his family there, and he got all the privacy he needed with Kate Wright, his girlfriend, around. The massive mansion is a spectacle and is definitely one of the most splendid properties in the neighborhood. The center-back has never needed to mortgage his house and a net worth of almost $75 million. We are proud of him!

 

Sam Allardyce – Est. £2.6 Million, Moraira, Spain

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

Sam Allardyce found himself entangled in a bit of controversy in his managerial career and that led to his expulsion from the English national team. That, indeed, proved to be harmful to his prospects and not being able to live in his own country was something he never bargained for. Sam is now a resident of Spain and has left all the worries and anxieties behind. His luxurious property in Moraira is worth close to £2.6 million and has all the amenities in it that one might need. Making an investment in the property was never a big deal for Allardyce as he had raked in a lot of wealth throughout his career. We wish him all the best for his future endeavors.

 

Gary Neville — £2.9 million, Bolton, England

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

Gary is now a 44-year-old football coach and used to be one of the best football players that Manchester United has ever seen. However, things have gone downhill since his days as a star player in his team. His lowest point probably has to the time when he was fired from his job as the manager of the Spanish football club named Valencia. He used to own Meadow Manor, which is this amazing mansion that’s located close to Bolton, and it’s exactly the sort of house we’d expect someone like Gary to have. He sold off this house, but we’re sure that he’s going to make a comeback in terms of his career before he hits retirement.

 

David Seaman – Est. £76,000, Range Rover

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

David’s goalkeeping skills led him high up the ladder of success, and he caught everyone’s attention when he signed up for the English Premier League side, Arsenal. The English goalkeeper earned 75 caps for his national team. Banking on his successful career, Seaman raked in big bucks in his banks. His love for cars is not hidden from anyone and his repertoire boasts of some awesome stuff. In 2016, David decided to buy a Range Rover which took him nearly £76,000. Aside from that, we heard that he has a Jaguar as well as an Aston Martin in his garage. That goes on to show what an affluent lifestyle Seaman has. He is well past 50 now and has never faced any financial issues in his life.

 

Gary Lineker – Est. £2.04 Million, Esher, Surrey

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

Being one of the most successful footballers of today, Gary Lineker doesn’t have any problems purchasing properties. He bought the Esher house back in 2006, and this was when he was about to get married to his girlfriend, Danielle Bux, who’s now his ex-wife. Gary has already had a major breakup before with his other ex-wife Michelle, and things couldn’t last for his second marriage either. We’re hoping that he ends up with someone permanently, but until then, it’s obvious that his bank account is under no pressure whatsoever since he’s able to purchase the most expensive properties available. Gary is now 58 years of age, so actively playing isn’t an option for him – however, he’s financially stable, and that’s something we all aim for, right?

 

Patrick Vieira — Est. £2.2 Million, Cheshire

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

It takes a lot of skill and gravitas to be able to manage a football team, but Patrick seems to have pulled it off without even breaking a sweat. He has been managing OGC Nice since last year. During his time as a player, he was able to score plenty of goals in World Cups when he was playing for the French team. He’s been able to earn a lot throughout his career and now boasts a net worth of $33 million, which is enough to get him a house anywhere in the world. He’s recently sold his £2.2-million estate in Cheshire, and the sheer size of it shows us why Patrick would go for it. It covers 6,500-square-feet, and we’re hoping that Patrick was able to generate some money through this investment.

Pep Guardiola is clearly in love with football since he wasn’t able to let go of the sport even after retirement. He’s now a coach and he’s doing pretty great with his career so far – at least in terms of his earnings because his luxury apartment in Manchester speaks volumes of how rich he is. He’s a father of 3 children, so he has to make sure that every investment he makes for his future counts. He also used to be the manager of Manchester City in the past which goes to show how he could possibly afford such an apartment in the real estate hotspot. He’ll probably go on to advance his career even further in the upcoming years.

Denmark happens to be one of the best places on earth to live in, and Peter has made the wise choice of living there now that he’s in retirement from football. The fact that he was such an amazing goal keeper during his days as a football star is probably why Peter still has so many fans even to this day. He’s played for the Denmark team in the 1999 UEFA Champions League and was a deciding factor and a linchpin to the victory for his team during the event. It’s no joke to play for Manchester United, and the team readily accepted Peter to play for them. However, Peter is living out his days peacefully now, having made more money than he could ever spend.

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

If you want an expensive house in Wales, Aaron’s mansion might suit your needs. The upside to the giant house is that it’s on a massive discount right now – bigger than you could have ever hoped for! Its original value was higher than £4 million, but Arsenal’s midfielder brought it all the way down to £3 million since it wasn’t getting any offers from potential buyers. It offers every basic luxury that a house of so much value should have, including a swimming pool and a tennis court. Aaron isn’t even close to the age of retirement, so he’ll likely have more than enough money to purchase a much better residence for himself by the time he’s ready to settle down for good.

Peter and his wife poured all their love and attention into building the house that they’re living in right now.

They’ve got three children, and they wanted to make sure that they had an amazing place for them to grow up in, and this massive house that even has its own cinema room is more than enough for this family. Peter has been playing for Burnley for a while now which explains how he had the money in his bank account to pay for a house like this.

www.fanbanter.co.uk – Fan reaction to the latest football news, gossip & funnies

Currently plying his trade for the French club, Marseille, Mario has been raking in an annual salary of €3.7 million. He has proved his mettle, but we believe he hasn’t been able to utilize his potential till now. Mario is only 28 years old and has a long way to go. His astounding collection of cars has really caught our imagination, and we couldn’t prevent ourselves from checking them out. He has a Ferrari F12 Berlinetta in his garage which set him back almost £240,000, and that goes on to prove that the soccer star doesn’t think twice before splurging on stuff that catches his fancy. We really don’t blame him as we probably would have done the same thing had we been in Mario’s place and possessed a similar bank account.

There’s no exact figure as to how much his house in the Netherlands costs, but we’re certain that the amount must be in the millions after seeing the sheer size of that building. Dennis hasn’t just played football throughout his life but he has also written a book titled Stillness and Speed: My Story in order to earn more money for his well-settled family comprising of his wife and four children.

The iconic football star has been hailed as one of the greatest the world has ever witnessed.

We are not aware of the estate’s current price tag after selling it off, but Pele has surely added on to his already existing $100-million net wealth.
