Legendary Brazilian defender Cafu is experiencing major financial problems after retiring.
The former footballer of the Brazilian national team and Italian Milan Cafu is experiencing big problems after he finished his sports career. The legendary protector was forced to sell his property to pay off his huge debts.
According to The Sun, this time his luxurious mansion in an exclusive area of Sao Paulo went under the hammer. Cafu made the move under duress due to the debt hole in which the Brazilian found himself at the end of his playing career.

At the last moment, the former football player tried to challenge this decision, arguing that the mansion was his main residence and, according to the law of the country, it could not be confiscated, but his arguments were not considered.

As a result, the Cafu estate, which has six bedrooms, a private lift, a swimming pool, a private cinema and a football pitch, has been sold for £4 million. It is worth noting that this is not the first case against the former football player – previously, five real estate properties were confiscated from him through the court. And, apparently, they will continue to confiscate until he declares himself bankrupt.

According to Cafu himself, he found himself in an unpleasant situation after he decided to help an unnamed businessman in Sao Paulo. “I trusted him with my reputation, I loaned him some things, and in the end it led to a debt that accumulated like a snow globe,” said the Brazilian.
We remind you that earlier it became known that Taylor Swift’s concert may be canceled due to the failures of the Lyon football club.
