      Before becoming a head coach, he played for FC Barcelona, where he starred for Johan Cruyff’s legendary ‘Dream Team’, as well as subsequent sides like Roma and the Spanish national team.
      But it’s his time as a manager where Pep has shone even more, notching up achievements including becoming the only manager to win the continental treble twice.
      It’s helped Pep to amass an impressive fortune – he is reportedly worth £100million and paid £19.7million a year by the Blues. 
      Now also the subject of new BBC doc Pep Guardiola: Chasing Perfection, we look into the manager’s glamorous life away from the pitch with wife Cristina and their three children.

      Doomed fleet of cars
      Despite having driven a range of enviable motors, Pep is renowned for not being the world’s greatest driver.
      Last year, we reported that he has damaged cars collectively worth £460,000 since joining Man City in February 2016. 
      They included a £200,000 silver Bentley, GTX700, a £150,000 Range Rover, an £80,000 black Mercedes GLE and a £30,000 Mini Cooper.
      A source said: “Pep is brilliant at many things but driving doesn’t appear to be one of them, he has struggled with the roads in Manchester and had a couple of bumps.”

      The manager’s clumsiness when it comes to motors was further described by authors Lu Martin and Pol Ballus, in the 2019 book Pep’s City: The Making Of A Superteam.
      “He has a reputation from his Barcelona days of being a hapless driver and this is his fourth car he has owned since coming to Manchester,” they wrote.
      “His wing mirrors don’t survive for long and he’s also managed to fill a diesel Range Rover with petrol and mangle a silver Bentley.”

      After winning the treble – the Premier League, UEFA Champions League and FA Cup – in 2023, Pep celebrated with a trip to Egypt with Cristina and their children Maria, 23; Marius, 21; and Valentina, 16.
      They spent two days in Cairo and six days exploring Aswan and Luxor, where they visited the Sphinx and the Great Pyramid of Giza. 
      During the trip, Pep was showered with gifts including a replica of King Tutankhamun’s mask – and treated to lunch in a hotel overlooking the pyramids.
      “We welcomed him with flowers, souvenirs and promotional material about various Egyptian tourist and archaeological sites,” Nisreen Othmanli, from Egypt’s tourism board, told Arab News.

      In 2022, Pep celebrated winning his fourth Premier League title with a luxury holiday to Barbados with Cristina. 
      He was seen lapping up the waves on an enviable white sand beach before retreating to a high-end resort.
      That same year, he was seen on a romantic boat trip, dining at fancy restaurants and browsing expensive shops, in Venice, Italy.
      Ahead of joining Man City back in 2016, Pep took some time out with his family on a private yacht that they sailed along the Ibiza coastline.

      In 2017, Pep splashed out on one of the most expensive properties sold that year in Greater Manchester.
      He spent £2.7million on a luxury apartment in City Suites, which was in the “most desirable address” in Salford, next to a wealth of designer shops, high-end restaurants and wine bars. 
      As part of the deal, Pep had access to an 18-metre indoor spa pool, an exquisite spa and sauna facilities as well as a 24-hour gym. 
      Other benefits included two private parking spots, a 24-hour concierge team, dry-cleaning services and access to a private executive lounge.  
      Pep’s apartment is in a private section of the hotel, which is believed to occupy two of 16 floors. Guests can also rent rooms per night or opt for longer stays too.
      It was considered an unusual option due to most footballers from Manchester City and United choosing to live in leafy Cheshire, known for its sprawling mansions in the countryside.
      My wife is the best in the world at many things, but especially in fashion. So she says normally to me, don’t wear this or wear that, so I follow herPep Guardiola
      Pep also bought an 8,000-square-foot mansion in Pedarlbes, which is the most expensive area in Barcelona, for £8.55million back in 2021 .
      The stunning white home is nestled in the foothills of Sant Pere Màrtir mountain and boasts breathtaking views of the city. 
      It features a spacious living area, a high-end kitchen, a large private swimming pool and balconies across two of the storeys to take advantage looking out of over the picturesque landscape. 
      During a one-year work sabbatical in 2012, Pep lived in a luxurious New York apartment that cost £19,500-per-month and overlooked Central Park. 
      The building, located in Upper West Side, used to be the home of other celebs including X-Files actor David Duchovny and Barbara Streisand. 
      Inside the apartment was four bedrooms, bathrooms and a study, where it’s claimed the manager practised German before taking over at Bayern Munich.  
      Wardrobe fit for a model
      Pep has become known for his style at the Etihad Stadium, often sporting turtle necks and branded jumpers instead of always going for stuffy suits. 
      Among his outfits is his signature grey ‘hoodigan’, which was made by Theresa May’s favourite Italian designer Herno and reportedly costs £1,200.
      The manager was seen wearing the oversized item – considered “lucky” by fans – 30 times between the start of the 2019 season and May. 
      Pep has also been pictured in ‘MDCR’ – referring to ‘Madchester’ – jumpers and an array of items with the letter ‘P’ on them. 
      Earlier this month, he revealed his fashion choices are made by his wife Cristina – whom he met while he was modelling designer gear in Serra Claret, a fashion store owned by her family in Barcelona.

      He said: “My wife is the best in the world at many things, but especially in fashion. So she says normally to me, don’t wear this or wear that, so I follow her.
      “I am smart enough to know that when people are much much better than me, follow their advice and hers is really good.”
      Perhaps he is playing down his own fashion credentials, however. In throwback snaps from the Nineties, Pep was seen modelling on the catwalk for Antonio Miró, while playing for Barcelona.
      It was reported that every item from the Catalonian designer sold out just a few days after the event.  
      Priceless watches

      His love for fashion doesn’t stop there, Pep is also known to have an impressive collection of watches.
      Among them was a Richard Mille (RM) RM 27-01 Tourbillon Rafael Nadal, which he was pictured with on a golf course, that costs around £590,000 due to there only being ten in the world.  
      Other ultra-expensive timepieces seen on his wrist include a £455,000 RM 022 Tourbillon Aerodyne, a £75,000 RM 010 ‘Manchester City’ and the RM 004 All Gray, which costs more than £150,000.
      Last year Pep was seen wearing a RM 67-02 watch – they typically cost £228,000 but his timepiece was a United Arab Emirates edition, which is not for sale.
      He has also been seen sporting a £55,000 Patek Philippe Annual Calendar Chronograph 5905P and a £12,500 Rolex Cellini. 
      £500k wine collection
      Pep is known to be a wine lover but splashed out a whopping £200k on Spanish reds in 2021Credit: Splash News
      Away from the pitch, it seems the Man City boss is a secret fan of the reds… of the wine variety that is. 
      In 2021, it was reported that Pep forked out £200,000 on a Spanish vineyard’s finest vintage bottles and reportedly drinks a glass or two after football matches.
      Friends told The Daily Star that he spent as much as £500,000 on fancy reds including the very best Riojas, prized Priorat and Dibera del Duero labels.
      A source said: “His main interest is that of a collector of fine vintages, and he sees the value of them as investments… Not only does he enjoy a glass of wine, he really knows his stuff too.”

      Pep reportedly eyed up some of the fancy reds for his restaurant Tast Catalia, which he opened in Manchester back in 2018 alongside two Man City directors. 
      Previously, he said the “best way to enjoy” World Cup matches was “at home with red wine”. More

      Dan Azeez: A look inside the boxer’s life, boxing record and net worth

      by

      DAN Azeez is a British undefeated light-heavyweight boxer.He’s fighting Joshua Buatsi on February 3, 2024 in a postponed eliminator for the WBA world title — here we take a look at his life, career and net worth.
      Dan Azeez looks on during his victory over Matthew Tinker at Wembley Arena on March 26, 2022Credit: Getty
      Who is Dan Azeez?
      Light-heavyweight ace Dan Azeez is one of the UK’s most in-form fighters and is currently undefeated as a professional.
      It is an incredible turnaround for the former removals man and accountant — he has a masters degree in finance — who was knocked out within 30 seconds of his debut amateur bout.
      In the 2013 fight — undertaken while he was a student at Colchester University — he shared the Harlow stage with Lawrence Okolie, who was also making his bow.
      Azeez danced into the ring full of bravado and was knocked spark out inside a minute.
      READ MORE ON BOXING
      At the Royal Resistance gym in Kidbrooke, he revealed: “I swear, I walked across the ring and I was knocked out, chinned clean.
      “I only got into boxing by watching the likes of Roy Jones Jr and David Haye and they had that flashy style built on reflexes and speed.
      “I don’t know what I was thinking but I was dancing around in the changing room before, the most confident I have ever been for any fight — pro or amateur.
      I was in the changing room with Okolie and he was so confident, so I tapped into that, but then my opponent just whacked in a hook that sent me flying. I will never forget it.”
      Dan’s nickname used to be ‘Disease’ — which he was not a fan of — but he now goes by ‘Super Dan’.
      Most read in Boxing
      Azeez laughed to SunSport: “I used to cry about that nickname [Disease], I will never forget it. A substitute teacher called me it once and she really laughed.
      “I remember sitting there thinking ‘you’re in on the act too? I really don’t stand a chance’.
      “Thankfully the name vanished after secondary school because I hated it, it really hurt me.
      “It was made so much worse because it was a supply teacher who I really fancied as well so all the other kids burst out laughing as well.
      “I knew then my chances with her were shot — not that they were ever that strong when I am eight years old in her Maths class.
      “I wonder if she watches me now and remembers I was hot for her?”
      Azeez is the first 12st 7lbs fighter from Britain to secure every domestic title, including Southern Area, English, British and Commonwealth titles.
      He is also the current holder of the European light-heavyweight belt.
      What age and height is Dan Azeez?
      Azeez was born and raised in Lewisham, south London on August 30, 1989.
      At the time of writing, he is 34 years old.
      Dan is five-foot-ten (178cm) and has a reach of 70.1 inches (178cm).
      What is Dan Azeez’s boxing record?
      Dan’s record stands at 20-0-0.
      This means he has won all 20 of his professional bouts, with no losses or draws.
      He has won 13 of his fights via knockout, giving him a knockout ratio of 65%.
      Speaking about his upcoming fight with longtime friend and sparring partner Joshua Buatsi — which had to be postponed due to Dan picking up a strain in his back — Azeez has voiced his objections over the aspersions cast on him by Buatsi, in relation to the injury being fabricated.
      He told Sky Sports: “I didn’t really like the narrative but it is what it is. What can you do?
      “Even sometimes just the stuff Josh even says: ‘You know, I don’t know, I’m not sure’.
      “Why am I going to make up an injury?
      “It’s either you don’t believe it or you do. I thought you would at least know my character a bit better than that.”
      What is Dan Azeez’s net worth?
      Dan’s net worth has not been widely reported.

      CelebsAgeWiki is the only outlet with an estimate of his wealth.
      The online publication has quite a wide range for its prediction, calculating that Azeez’s net worth is somewhere between $1million USD (£786,000) and £5million USD (£3.9million). More

      Joshua Buatsi: A look inside the boxer’s life, boxing record and net worth

      by

      JOSHUA Buatsi is a British-Ghanaian undefeated light-heavyweight boxer.Here we look at his life, career and net worth.

      Who is Joshua Buatsi?
      Joshua Buatsi was born in Accra, Ghana — before his family moved to Thornton Heath, south London, where he grew up.
      He studied at Edenham High School, and then completed a degree at St Mary’s University, Twickenham in business management and sports science, graduating with a 2:1.
      Buatsi started boxing at the age of fifteen at the South Norwood and Victory boxing club, located in an old church hall near Croydon.
      The knockout artist, who is nicknamed “Just Business”, became an English national champion and won a European bronze medal before representing Great Britain at the Rio Olympics in 2016 — where he also picked up a bronze medal.
      READ MORE ON BOXING
      Joshua has gone on to have a successful professional career, holding the WBA international light-heavyweight title, and is undefeated so far.
      He is often referred to as somewhat of an anomaly in the world of boxing, as unlike a great many of his peers he avoids trash talking and is considered to be good natured.
      His former promoter Eddie Hearn described him as “the nicest, most dangerous man you can meet”.
      Buatsi told Al Jazeera: “They speak about me outside the ring in terms of ‘he’s a nice guy, he’s polite’.
      Most read in Boxing
      “It’s just when I get in the ring, it’s no time to be nice, my coach always says to me, ‘nice guys finish last.’”
      And Joshua has said that a boxing legend taught him to respect his opponents.
      He told SunSport: “As Mike Tyson said, ‘not everyone you fight is your enemy and not everyone that helps you is your friend’.
      Life is hard for everyone for all different reasons, just because we are boxers it doesn’t mean we should make it any harder for each other.
      “We are not born boxers and we are not boxers until the day we die.
      “I have nothing personal with any of these guys and — until we sign a contract and get in that ring for 12 rounds of trying to take each others’ heads off — I like to be cool with everyone.”
      Buatsi left Hearn’s Matchroom stable when it left Sky Sports and jumped ship to streaming app DAZN in 2021.
      Joshua was furious when Hearn claimed he had ducked a £1million world title shot against Russian champion Dmitry Bivol, leading him to return to Sky Sports and their promoters BOXXER.
      Buatsi fumed: “Matchroom promised me a world title shot over and over again; ‘Beat Ricards Bolotniks (August ‘21) and you’ll get it’. Then it was: ‘Beat Craig Richards (May ‘22) and you’ll get it’.
      “But there were always excuses about writing to the WBA and then it never happened.
      “I wanted to avoid this topic too but Eddie came out and said I turned down the Bivol fight for £1million.
      “But we had a conversation in confidence that he went public with but he only publicised half of the sentence.
      “He left out all the caveats they wanted included; the contract extensions and extra fights with Matchroom.
      “I took those unmentioned extras as two or three more years on DAZN, two more three years of no publicity and nobody seeing my fights.
      “I thought I might win a world title on a channel that hardly anybody has access to, let alone watches.
      “So when Eddie comes out and just says ‘he turned down a world title offer and £1m’ that is not the truth.
      “There was a lot more to that offer but he just doesn’t want to tell the public, he just wants to shape their minds.
      “It’s unfortunate because most of the public believes what Eddie says but if you were to track and trace everything Eddie says everyday, you would go mad!
      “The story changes so frequently that people need to look a bit deeper.
      “If you just pick up and notice the pattern of this guy you cannot believe everything he says.”
      What age and height is Joshua Buatsi?
      Buatsi was born on March 14, 1993.
      At the time of writing, he is 30 years old.
      Joshua is six-foot-two (188cm) and has a reach of 74.5 inches (189cm).
      What is Joshua Buatsi’s boxing record?
      Buatsi’s boxing record stands at 17-0-0.
      This means he has won all 17 of his professional bouts, with no losses or draws.
      He has won 13 of his fights by knockout, giving him a knockout ratio of 76.5%.
      Buatsi is shaping for a busy 2024, with his fight against Dan Azeez — a postponed eliminator for the WBA world title — scheduled for February 3.
      And an all British dust-up with Anthony Yarde is also on the cards later in the year.
      Buatsi told SunSport: “Stormzy had like a birthday party. We were both invited and we were talking and that’s when we mentioned it as well. 
      “The only thing about that was I think a couple of days later I see an interview where his energy was a bit different.
      “And I was thinking, ‘That’s mad. Because when I was with you a couple of days ago you wasn’t saying any of that. You was talking normal.’
      “But again, he’s saying what he’s supposed to say, so hopefully it can happen…”
      What is Joshua Buatsi’s net worth?
      Reports of Joshua’s net worth vary, but not too dramatically.

      At the bottom and of the scale, a number of outlets put it at around $1.5million USD (£1.2million).

      by

      FORMER boxing champ Anthony Joshua is now worth almost £180 million, new accounts reveal.The star turned over a heavyweight profit last year, with his main business banking £41.3 million – or £113,000 per day.

      Joshua, 34 – who has previously said he wants to be a billionaire – saw the huge turnover in his Sparta Promotions company.
      The firm, which channels AJ’s boxing and sponsorship earnings, was worth £129 million at the end of the accounting period in March 2023.
      But the figures do not include Joshua’s earnings from his last two fights – which saw him beat Otto Wallin in Saudi Arabia in October and Robert Helenius in London last August.
      And Joshua’s fortune is set to soar further, after he agreed to fight former UFC champ Francis Ngannou in Saudi Arabia in March.

      It has been reported that ‘AJ’ – known as one of sport’s most marketable stars – will bank £31 million for the bout.
      The new accounts, which Joshua signed himself in December, show that Sparta had a turnover of £41.3 million. That works out at £113,000 per day.
      It turned a profit of £35.9 million – or £98,356 per day.
      The firm’s turnover included £28.3 million from boxing bouts, plus £13 million from outside the ring activities. 
      Most read in Boxing
      Joshua works with brands including fashion giant Hugo Boss, Jaguar Land Rover and sports firm Under Armour.
      Sparta returned a smaller profit – of £16.1 million – in the year to March, 2022 and generated £20.2 million worth of business.
      Its latest accounts highlight the cash AJ earned from his second defeat to Ukranian boxer Oleksandr Usyk, in Saudi Arabia in June 2022.
      They say: “All divisions showed a significant increase in turnover in 2023, compared to 2022.
      “The bouts division increased due to a territory-specific opportunity for a rematch of a highly anticipated fight.
      “On the back of the rematch, sponsorship income also rose due to the publicity the fight attracted.” 
      The paperwork – filed at Companies House yesterday – reveals AJ earned £6.3 million in wages, which he took from the firm via a dividend.
      The net worth of the company stood at £129 million at the time of the accounts. 
      On top of his boxing millions, AJ has a property empire with a growing portfolio of homes.
      His company 258 Commercial Investments holds £26.5 million and 258 Investments is sitting on £12.3 million.
      AJ also sitting on £9 million in current assets at dormant business 258 Equity – giving a total of £176.8 million in all three companies.
      A source said: “Anthony is a shrewd guy, and these accounts reflect that. He has come from humble roots so knows the value of everything, and has a keen eye for business.
      “AJ wants to secure the future for his family, and works as hard out of the ring as he does in it.”
      Joshua – who has an eight-year-old son by ex Nicole Osbourne – has always been open about his desire to make money.
      In a 2017 interview with GQ, he said: “When I first started, the aim was to become a multimillionaire.
      “But now there are ordinary people worth millions just because of property prices.
      “So the new school of thought is that I need to be a billionaire.

      “Being a millionaire is good, but you have to set your sights higher.”

      Petersen told Business Insider: “In early 2021, I’d never heard of YouTuber-turned-boxer Logan Paul.
      “But when people started flooding my comments section saying they thought I looked like him, I googled him and discovered he’s a hugely popular influencer with a controversial past.”
      Petersen, who shares four children with his wife, has enjoyed success from the comparisons but has admitted the reception isn’t always positive.
      He explained: “I sometimes receive negative comments from viewers, such as from a person who commented ‘you and your brother are jokes of the world,’ as if I was actually Logan himself, which is so strange.”

      He has been hit with a High Court bankruptcy petition filed by HMRC — setting off alarms for a string of VIPs.
      Dad-of-six Heskey, 45, was last year found to have defaulted on £92,000 of tax while working as a football development officer between 2017 and 2020.
      He was handed a £42,000 penalty.
      Meanwhile, the trendy bar he ran with wife Chantelle in posh Alderley Edge, Cheshire, was wound up by the courts with £163,000 of debts.

      It was unclear whether the court case arrears were related to the investment scheme or his business flop.
      Heskey has recently been involved in the running of Leicester City’s women’s team and supporting the England under-18s squad.
      The tax scheme was among those run by Ingenious Media, a financing company which funded more than 60 movies.
      David Beckham, Ant and Dec and Robbie Williams are among the famous names who pumped in cash, with a minimum £50,000 stake required.

      Clients were said to have been able to claim tax relief against most of their payment.
      Other stars linked to the scheme included Liverpool greats Steven Gerrard and Jamie Carragher and ex-Newsnight host Jeremy Paxman.
      Gerrard and composer Andrew Lloyd Webber were among investors reported in 2019 to be suing HSBC for “dishonestly assisting” Ingenious Media.
      Take That singers Gary Barlow, Howard Donald and Mark Owen have already repaid £20million.
      They insisted they had paid significant tax and believed the investments were legitimate enterprises.
      But Barlow later admitting it was “the stupidest thing I have ever done”.
      HMRC and Heskey were approached for comment. More
