      I’m a Premier League cult hero whose career spanned ten clubs but now I’m trying to make my fortune in crypto

      by

      RYAN BABEL thrilled and frustrated fans in equal measure in a maverick football career that took in TEN clubs and a World Cup finalNow the former Liverpool, Fulham and Ajax winger is trying to make it big again…in cryptocurrency.Ryan Babel’s playing career took many twists and turns – now he’s touting himself as a crypto expertCredit: GettyBabel has launched an Instragram account offering advice and information about investing in the controversial world of crypto finance.The Dutchman, 37, has time on his hands after leaving his final club, Turkish second-tier outfit Eyupspor, last year.And Babel claims that the expensive watch on his wrist was paid for through crypto investments.In a video on his main instagram account, @ryanbabel, the ex-Holland international is shown smoking a cigar and collecting the expensive timepiece from a London jeweller.READ MORE IN FOOTBALLBabel commented on the post, “Crypto bought me this watch”, and gave a link to @rbthecrypto.There, followers can find a range of posts and videos, with the man himself giving his tips and insights..In a recent item, Babel warns: “2024 won’t be as straightforward as most of you crypto geniuses think.”But so far his words of wisdom on the financial world have attracted just over 2,000 followers – compared to the 2.1m who follow his original Instagram.Most read in FootballHOW TO GET FREE BETS ON FOOTBALLBabel knows as well as anyone that sometimes you are up, and sometimes you are down.After making his Ajax debut at the age of just 17, he joined Liverpool in 2007 for £11.5m as one of the hottest young talents in world football.Ryan Babel mocks injured Getafe tight back Allan Nyom with fake limp and cry in Ajax’s Europa League lossBabel earned cult status with Reds fans, both on and off the field.After scoring in the quarter final and semi final of the 2007/8 Champions League, arguably his greatest moment in a Liverpool shirt came when he grabbed the winner in a 2-1 win over Manchester United at Anfield in September 2008.The mercurial winger had his ups and downs with Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez and never consistently lived up to his potential. He went to the 2010 World Cup with Holland, but did not play a single minute in the tournament in South Africa, where the Oranje lost 1-0 to Spain in the final.But Babel delighted Liverpool fans again in January 2011 when he photoshopped the head of referee Howard Webb – now the PGMOL chief – on to a United shirt in a Twitter post after the Reds had lost 1-0 to their rivals in the FA Cup.The FA fined him £10,000 and before the end of the month he left Anfield to join German side TSG Hoffenheim.Over the following decade, Babel played for a further seven clubs as well as returning twice to Ajax, where he won a second Dutch title in 2014.As well as short stays in the United Arab Emirates and La Liga, he enjoyed four separate spells in Turkey, winning a top-flight crown with Besiktas in 2017.That was the year Babel returned to the Dutch squad after an absence of six years and he eventually racked up 69 caps and 10 goals.The winger pitched up at Fulham on a short-term deal in January 2019 but could not stop the Cottagers from making an immediate return to the Championship.READ MORE SUN STORIESAfter three years at Galatasaray, which included a spell on loan back at Ajax, he spent the final year of his career to date at Eyupspor, a club based in Istanbul.Now his Instagram account describes him as an “entrepreneur”.

      Cristiano Ronaldo facing $1BILLION lawsuit in the USA over Binance cryptocurrency adverts

      by

      CRISTIANO RONALDO is facing a lawsuit worth 1 BILLION DOLLARS after promoting Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange.A filing in a US district court in Florida has alleged that the ex-Manchester United and Real Madrid man, 38, “promoted, assisted in, and/or actively participated in the offer and sale of unregistered securities in co-ordination with Binance”.
      Cristiano Ronaldo could be set to enter a huge legal battleCredit: Reuters
      According to The Times, it has been claimed by the plaintiffs of the case that his endorsement of the company led to them making losses on their investments.
      Ronaldo’s representatives have been approached for comment.
      The Al-Nassr forward signed a multi-year deal with Binance last year to promote non-fungible tokens – also known as NFTs.
      These are virtual assets, used to prove ownership of an online picture or video, which can be purchased and sold.
      READ MORE ON CRISTIANO RONALDO
      Ronaldo and Binance collaborated to create an NFT collection in November 2022.
      The Portuguese icon claimed this would reward his loyal followers “for all the years of support”.
      Following the release of the NFTs, Ronaldo said: “It was important to me that we created something memorable and unique for my fans as they are such a big part of my success.
      “With Binance, I was able to make something that not only captures the passion of the game but rewards fans for all the years of support.”

      Earlier this month, Binance’s co-founded and chief executive, Changpeng Zhao, pled guilty to charges of money laundering.
      He will personally pay a 50 million dollar fine as part of a 4 BILLION dollar settlement between Binance and the justice department.
      Ronaldo has been living in Saudi Arabia since he joined Al-Nassr midway through the 2021/22 season when his Man Utd contract was terminated.
      He has scored 32 goals and provided 11 assists in 38 games since arriving in the Middle East. More

      Prem star forced to return home after losing £1m in ‘crypto scam’ as he’ll miss out on four games

      by

      A PREMIER league star has fled to his homeland after losing £1million in an alleged crypto scam.Nottingham Forest’s Gustavo Scarpa, 29, has missed four games after flying back to Brazil to deal with rogue cryptocurrency investors.

      The attacking ace arrived in the UK on a free transfer from Palmeiras in November.
      But he’s been given special permission to return home to battle three companies that promised high returns on investments.
      The firms failed to pay up when Scarpa asked for his money back, according to Brazil’s ESPN.
      Head coach Steve Cooper admitted the player had been badly affected by the scam.

      He said: “I can tell you that he has had some personal issues to sort out and we are giving him our support, which has been inclusive of allowing him to travel back [to Brazil].” 
      Scarpa was last on the pitch during the 2-0 defeat against Fulham last month.
      He was an unused substitute against Manchester City and West Ham United.
      And he wasn’t part of the squad at all against Everton and Tottenham Hotspur.
      Most read in Football
      Scarpa made the investment in May last year, according to reports.
      He was promised returns of 3.5 to five per cent – but he has since been unable to claim his money back.
      The footballer has taken three companies to the 10th Civil Court of São Paulo.
      Last year Scarpa became Nottingham Forest’s 24th signing since they earned a promotion to the Premier League.
      In December he was spotted skate-boarding around the city centre as he got to know his new home.
      Scarpa had one cap for Brazil and was looking forward to his next challenge.
      He said at the time: “I’m very happy to be here, it’s a dream for me.
      “It’s a new challenge and I can’t wait for it to begin. It’s always been an ambition since I was a little kid to play in Europe, and my dream is to play in the Premier League.

      “I’m very dedicated, hard-working and I’m excited to get started now.”

      And their new project – in partnership with Adidas – went live on Friday.
      The idea sees fans purchase digital assets giving access to a raft of perks including voting rights on club decisions, merchandise, exclusive experiences and digital content. 
      So far more than 9,000 of the “non-fungible tokens” have been bought using a cryptocurrency called Ether – at a cost of roughly £355 a pop. 
      Crawley co-chairman Johnson told a Twitter live chat: “We’re going to offer via this technology unprecedented access into the way a club functions day to day, week to week.

      The Mail writes that Binance has been branded a “significant risk” to consumers by the city watchdog.
      Bitcoin peaked last autumn, but has since seen its value crater by more than 70 per cent.
      Some experts fear that a “crypto winter” is set to strike the industry.
      It’s felt that electronically producing bitcoin via computer algorithms could become more expensive than the value of the currency itself.

      Man Utd unveil new £20m-a-year training kit sponsor with blockchain platform Tezos in huge investment boost

      by

      MANCHESTER UNITED are reportedly set to unveil a new £20million-a-year training kit sponsorship deal.The Athletic claims blockchain platform Tezos will adorn United’s training gear after their old contract with Aon finished last season, leaving their kit blank so far this term.

      It’s reckoned all the promotional material has been shot.
      And United will announce their multi-year partnership with the New York-based crypto company shortly.
      Tezos describes itself on its website as ‘an open-source platform that addresses key barriers facing blockchain adoption for assets and applications backed by a global community of validators, researchers, and builders’.
      It adds: “By design, Tezos embraces long-term upgradability, open participation, collaboration, and smart contract safety.”
      United’s agreement with Tezos comes after a £200m deal with The Hut Group collapsed last year.
      Pressure from protestors against all the club’s commercial partners forced the Manchester-based company to withdraw from an agreement.

      A fan group calling itself NOTAPENNYMORE launched a social media campaign aimed at the club’s main sponsors – which include Adidas, who sell United kit around the world, Cadbury and more.
      They issued an open letter to all the commercial partners claiming their products would be targeted, causing The Hut Group to pull out.
      This happened a week after protests at Old Trafford and the club’s Lowry hotel base forced United’s home game against Liverpool to be postponed.
      However, United had already managed to secure a new shirt sponsor in TeamViewer by that point.
      The tech company replaced Chevrolet on United kits at the start of the current season.
      And the deal sees the Red Devils pocket £47m each year – working out to a whopping total of £235m.

      Peter Silverstone, Arsenal’s commercial director said: ‘We are excited to launch this partnership with Socios that will bring our huge global fan base even closer to the club. 
      “Socios are leading the way in blockchain in the sports industry, as we have seen from their relationships with other leading European clubs. 
      “When we launch the $AFC Fan Tokens together we will give our hundreds of millions of fans worldwide more opportunities to interact with the club and be a part of our global family.”
      Chilliz is thought to be one of the most influential blockchain suppliers for the sports and entertainment sector. 
      Barcelona and Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain are among the clubs working with the firm. 
      Portugal and Copa America champions Argentina are among the national teams to have agreed to partnerships.
