Many footballers have a very comfortable life while playing football, 5 star hotels, cars and all the luxuries one could imagine, they have them, however, many of them by not taking good care of their money, end up losing it and staying broke. 


That is the story of Wes Brown, the former Manchester United central defender played at a great level during his time at Old Trafford, he was one of the references for Sir Alex Ferguson in the 90's and early 00's when the team not only dominated the Premier League, but also dominated Europe, for that reason Brown was a great figure and stood out among the other players. 


However, after leaving United in the 10/11 season, after thirteen years with the club, his football career went downhill as he could only stay for 3 years as a professional; after that nothing was heard about the player until years later it was reported that he was in a divorce process with a TV presenter. 


This undoubtedly brought many problems for Brown, as after having earned over 10 million during his career, he had to say goodbye to all his fortune and declare bankruptcy; this not only brought the attention of the media, but also Marcus Rashford, who, according to some reports, is renting him a house to try to help him in the unfortunate situation in which he finds himself.

Wes Brown's career at United


Despite his situation, Brown can be remembered as a great player and one of the best defenders Manchester United ever had, because during his time at United, he was able to accumulate 362 games, won 7 Premier Leagues, 2 Champions League, 2 FA Cups, 3 League Cups and 2 Super Cups; there is no doubt that Wes Brown won it all with United and he will always be remembered for that.
