    Chelsea legend John Terry’s daughter ‘warned him POLAR BEARS roam Russian streets’ and stopped Spartak Moscow transfer

    TRANSFER agent Marco Trabucchi has claimed that John Terry’s daughter warned him of POLAR BEARS roaming the streets in Russia as the Chelsea legend pondered moving to Spartak Moscow.In the summer of 2018, the England defender was given the chance to continue his career after a year at Championship side Aston Villa.

    Terry eventually turned down the £1.8million contract despite taking a medical in Rome.
    At the time, he cited not wanting to move wife Toni and their two children when rejecting Moscow – and one curious incident has been revealed by Italian agent Trabucchi.
    He told YouTube show Comment Stop, via RT: “The headteacher of the school called John.
    “They said that his daughter was falling to the floor, roaring that dad was leaving for Moscow.
    “[She was saying] there were polar bears walking down the street and he would never return.”
    Taking to Instagram to announce his decision to snub Spartak, Terry stated he was ‘very impressed with their professionalism’ and ‘ambition’.
    And the former Chelsea skipper even showed up in Moscow to take in a game, a month after rejecting the chance to play for them.
    Soon after, he officially ended his playing career and joined the coaching staff at Villa.

    And Trabucchi, who has previously worked with Spartak on several deals, admits that it was always something of a long shot to sign the centre-back.
    He added: “We tried to convince Terry. I talked to him. He explained his decision. His priority was to stay with his family.
    “He wanted to move but his family refused, so he stayed. We must respect his choice.
    “Unfortunately our key central defender Gigot got injured. We don’t think it would be wise to sign a young player or someone not reliable enough.
    “We were too much into this Terry thing. We thought we could convince him. It is all in the past now.”

    Man Utd wonderkid Zidane Iqbal, 19, impressed aged 3, was subbed for being too good and could play for England

    ZIDANE IQBAL is the new name on Manchester United fans’ lips.The talented attacking midfielder, 19, was superb against Liverpool in a preseason friendly in Thailand this week and shone again against Melbourne Victory.

    It followed his first-team debut in a 1-1 draw against Young Boys in the Champions League, where he starred alongside Robbie Savage’s son Charlie.
    With a name like ‘Zidane’, the Iraqi Under-23s international always had massive boots to fill.
    And in becoming the first-ever player of South Asian descent to pull on the red of Man Utd, he’s well on his way to becoming a superstar.
    Iqbal replaced Jesse Lingard for the final few moments of the draw at Old Trafford – and could be ready to fill his shoes now he’s left the club.
    He joined the likes of Savage, Shola Shoretire, Teden Mengi and Anthony Elanga in playing the final Champions League group game in 2021.
    And while Iqbal had precious little time to make an impact, he appears destined for a bright future having been handed his first-team debut under new boss Ralf Rangnick.
    Manchester-born Iqbal joined United in 2012 – at the age of just nine – and is eligible to play for England despite having already featured for Iraq’s youth teams.

    The attacking midfielder previously represented Sale United as a kid.
    And his former coach hailed his ‘great attitude’ as he targets a future at the Premier League giants.
    But it wasn’t only his attitude, Iqbal was described as being ‘unfairly good’ – and was even subbed off or stuck in goal to give opponents a chance.
    Earlier this year, Iqbal’s old coach Stewart Hamer told MEN: “He had a great attitude, he was always willing to learn and he played with a big smile on his face.
    “He was quite happy to do whatever we challenged him to do.
    “Everyone took their part in being a goalkeeper, for example, and he’d take his part in the net just like everyone else.”

    Hamer continued: “We had quite a bit of success if you can call it that at that stage, and Zidane was at the heart of that.
    “There were times when we would play six-a-side competitions and he would be basically ripping it up.
    “We would take him off and substitute him because it wasn’t fair to the other side.
    “Or sometimes we’d put him in goal so he wasn’t causing the danger.”

    MAN UTD are no strangers to paying stars large salaries.And their 2021 wage list made interesting reading – with that year’s £73million signing Jadon Sancho leaping to become one of the club’s top earners on £350,000-per-week.

    David De Gea topped the list, raking in £375,000 per week – totalling £19.5million a year.
    However, it is worth noting their 2022 wage list would see Cristiano Ronaldo leading the way – on a reported £510,000-per-week.
    But Sancho did slide in ahead of Paul Pogba, with the Frenchman earning £290,000 per week, before he recently departed to Juventus.
    Anthony Martial (£250k), Edinson Cavani (£210k) and Marcus Rashford (£200k) are the others who broke the £200,000-a-week barrier – although Cavani was released last month.
    Captain Harry Maguire pockets £190,000 per week while two-time United player-of-the-year Bruno Fernandes gets £180,000.
    In fact, 14 first-team players all earn £100,000 or more per week, with the likes of Luke Shaw (£150k) and Fred (120k) next on the list.

    The enigmatic Brazilian forward dropped Nike to join rivals Puma and was rewarded with the largest individual sports sponsorship contract in history.
    It’s not known how long the deal will last, but his previous agreement with Nike was for 11 years and was worth half of his new Puma deal.
    Afterwards Neymar posted on social media: “I grew up watching videos of great football legends such as Pele, Cruyff, Eusebio and Maradona, who each played in Puma.
    “For these reasons, from today onward, I have the honour to unite with the brand that helped the biggest legends of football become what they are.”

    2. MESSI, £18M
    The second footballer to become a billionaire (the first was Cristiano Ronaldo), Messi is second on the best boot deals of all time.
    In 2017 the Barcelona legend, who shocked the world with his transfer to PSG, signed an extension to his boot deal with Adidas – giving him a lifetime contract with the company.
    He was the first footballer to release a sub-brand of Adidas boots – the Adidas Messi.
    As the years pass, and when Messi finally hangs up his boots, that could be just as lucrative for the forward as the Air Jordan brand Nike created for Michael Jordan.

    3. RONALDO, £15M
    As Nike’s prize asset, Ronaldo is their top earner.
    However, Neymar’s contract now dwarfs his by £8m.
    But Ronaldo can take comfort his deal will pay out more than Neymar’s – being reportedly worth £780m over a lifetime.
    Manchester United’s CR7 is only the third athlete to sign a lifetime deal with Nike, along with Michael Jordan and LeBron James.

    4. MBAPPE, £14M
    Nike’s poster-boy, in 2019 Kylian Mbappe was subject to a bidding war between his current sponsors and Adidas.
    He penned a 10-year deal worth around £140m, which is believed to be active as long as he plays in a top league.
    The PSG superstar was reportedly buoyed to join Nike, following in the footsteps of his idol Ronaldo.
    He is the one who could challenge Neymar’s position at the top in years to come aged just 23.

    5. BALOTELLI, £5M
    In 2014, Italian golden boy Mario Balotelli was on top of his game for AC Milan.
    A key member of the Italian national team, he was the country’s best hope of glory.
    So when his contract with Nike expired, Puma swooped with a 10-year deal worth around £5m per year.
    Now at a crossroads in his career after heading to Adana Demirspor in Turkey, the 31-year-old is not as marketable as he once was.

    6. BALE, £4M
    The Welsh wizard, who recently joined LAFC, earned around £18m per year from Real Madrid prior to leaving earlier this summer.
    He still has exclusive sponsorship deals with the likes of EA Sports, Lucozade and Adidas, to name just a few.
    It’s his contract with the German sports manufacturers that is his most lucrative, however, earning Gareth Bale around £4m per annum.
    It’s certainly enough to keep Bale in golf clubs.

    7. GRIEZMANN, £3.5M
    In 2015, Antoine Griezmann extended his boot deal with Puma to the tune of £3.5million-per-year.
    In that time, he became a global superstar – leaving Atletico Madrid for Barcelona in a deal worth around £108m – although now he is back in the Spanish capital.
    In 2019, to celebrate Griezmann’s 10-year anniversary with Puma, they released his special boot – a limited edition Future 4.1 NETFIT Grizi priced at £229.
    He was one of Puma’s headline players until Neymar came along.

    8. POGBA, £3M
    The Juventus midfielder is well worth his £3m per year fee Adidas pay him.
    Not only does he appear in almost every TV ad the brand brings to our screens, he’s also on every poster advertising the latest Predator boots.
    His 10-year deal worth around £30m doesn’t expire till 2024.
    Pogba was another Nike were desperate to add to their roster.

    9. VERRATTI, £2.5M
    The PSG midfielder’s contract with Puma expired in 2017, at which point Marco Verratti wore blacked out Puma evoTOUCH boots in training.
    Eventually, he signed a massive deal with Nike – lacing up a pair of the Hypervenom Phantom III’s.
    It’s not known how long the deal is.
    However, £2.5m is not to be sneezed at.

    10. SALAH, £2.5M
    The Liverpool forward has become one of the most marketable faces in the game, especially in Africa and the Middle East.
    He is sponsored by Adidas, alongside lucrative deals with the likes of Pepsi and Vodafone in Egypt.
    It sees Mo Salah wear the X18 football boots, and get paid extremely well for it.
    That endorsement generates £2.5m per year.

    He added: “I have gained in muscles with training, rest and food. Food is essential and I consider it a very important part of training.
    “Water – although I don’t drink much in matches – is vital. Maintaining the water level in the body is essential for an athlete.
    “I try to vary the amount of dishes and have a varied, healthy and balanced diet.
    “I can eat a little paella as well as a typical Malian dish with peanut sauce and brown rice.
    “Everything is done by my mother, who is the best cook in the world. Then, like all athletes, I also throw in a lot of Italian pasta.”
    Traore – who oils up his arms to stop opponents holding on to him – also explained his gym work is designed around injury prevention.
    He said: “It is a balance of everything. My physical change, evolution, has also been out of necessity.
    I do exercises not only to empower, but also to prevent injuries, which is what any athlete fears the mostAdama Traore
    “When I was 15, I had knee problems with tendinitis that did not let me play my game or explode with my speed.
    “Then I began to strengthen in the gym. I was very explosive and needed to do more specific work to avoid injuries.
    “I do exercises not only to empower, but also to prevent injuries, which is what any athlete fears the most.”
    The Barcelona academy product was born in Spain but was approached to play for Mali, where his parents are from.
    However, Traore was only ever going to play for Spain having turned out for La Roja at various youth levels.
    He said: “The call from Mali is because of my African origins and I appreciate that they remembered me.

    Inside Juventus star Paul Pogba’s plush Miami apartment that includes private beach club – and Beckhams as neighbours

    IT IS well-known that Juventus star Paul Pogba loves a trip to Miami.And he’ll be able to stay there in comfort and style after purchasing a luxury apartment in the city’s One Thousand Museum building last year.

    The open plan design is homely and comfortingCredit: refer to caption
    Designed by the celebrated late British architect Zaha Hadid, One Thousand Museum has become one of the most stylish and desirable living spots in Miami – with a number of superstars having moved in since it opened in 2019.
    And among Pogba’s new neighbours will be none other than Red Devils and England legend David Beckham – who famously spends a lot of time in the city running MLS franchise Inter Miami.
    Hadid was well-known for her daring, dynamic designs – and has clearly created another masterpiece in downtown Miami.
    The Pritzker Award-winning architect, who passed away in 2016, was known for her use of curves – with that trademark visible on the exterior of Pogba’s new pad.
    And the interior is even better, with clean, modern, tasteful furnishing a key feature of the midfielder’s new getaway digs.
    The Frenchman, 29, and his wife Zulay – as well as their young son – will be even more keen to spend time stateside as they build a home for their young family in Turin following Pogba’s return to Juventus.
    And the trio will be able to enjoy a tremendous view over the city and the nearby Museum Park from the dynamic floor-to-ceiling windows – and the spacious terrace.
    The living areas, sporting a white theme with some blue decor, is a perfect place to hang out with pals Pharrell Williams and Miami Heat superstar Jimmy Butler.

    And the bathrooms are equally high-class – with Pogba able to relax and enjoy the glorious view.
    He will have to remember to water his plants however, with plenty of them dotted around the tastefully decorated condo.
    The open floor plan and floor-to-ceiling windows instantly portray a feeling of comfort and ease.
    And according to the building’s website, Pogba’s terrace will be totally unique, responding to the “sensual curves of the tower’s sculptural exoskeleton”.
    The building is not short of communal treats either – and Pogba may find himself bumping into the Beckhams dining at the Sky Lounge.
    He and Zulay will also be able to chill out in the spa, or even take a dip in the 61st floor pool.
    They’ll be able to arrive in style on the rooftop helipad, or even make use of the building’s very own private airport when jetting in from Turin.

    The Beckhams splashed out £20million on their One Thousand Museum apartment, and it is easy to see why.
    One Thousand Museum’s development team said in a statement, as reported by Architectural Digest: “One Thousand Museum is truly like nothing else on the market, and has continued to attract high-profile clientele due to its striking design, unmatched level of safety and security, lifestyle offerings and location in Miami’s epicenter.
    “We know these factors were integral to Mr Pogba’s decision, and we look forward to welcoming him and his family home.”

    All that success certainly brought in the dollar, with Mayweather Jr estimated to have a mammoth net worth of $560million in 2022.
    Rated as the sixth-highest paid athlete of all time, even after his official retirement he’s raked in the dosh by appearing in lucrative exhibitions against Logan Paul, Conor McGregor, Tenshin Nasukawa and Don Moore.
    ‘Pretty Boy’ certainly likes to splash out on the finer things in life, with his vast wealth providing a substantial financial safety net for his family.
    Mayweather has two biological sons Zion and Koraun, both with tragic former partner and reality TV star Josie Harris.

about itself – now experts fear they’ve opened ‘Pandora’s box’
    While adopted son Devion – whose mother is ex-girlfriend Melissa Brim – currently plies his trade in Las Vegas as an entrepreneur.
    One profession all three have chosen to avoid is boxing, with Mayweather revealing last year Zion and Koraun have another hobby.
    He told The Million Dollaz Worth of Game show: “Well, my two boys they like to smoke weed so I know they ain’t going to box. 
    “I don’t, that’s what they like, they grown.” 
    Zion, who turned 21 on March 28, is the fashionista of the family and manages a high-end clothing brand called Philthy Rich Boys.
    He keeps his 235k Instagram followers up to date with the latest looks, ranging from luxury t-shirts to basketball shorts.
    Much of the merchandise is Mayweather-themed, with the label holding a pop-up shop last year in Miami where punters could win a card signed by the boxer himself.
    ‘ALREADY A MILLIONAIRE..’
    Speaking ahead of Mayweather vs Paul in June 2021, Zion told Fight Hype how he was getting involved in event promotion as well as fashion.
    He said: “[The shirts] I made, I designed, I printed. It’s just getting shipped out here.
    “I promote parties, there are a few other events that I’ve got going and cooking up which will come to light soon.
    “I’m still working on perfecting them but you guys will eventually see.”
    The influencer was given a taste of the high-life early, with Mayweather gifting him a plush $78,000 Mercedes for his 16th birthday.
    While older brother Koraun wasted no time in launching his singing career after graduating from high school in 2018.
    He dropped his first single RACK$ under the rap moniker King Koraun just days after leaving West Ranch High School in Stevenson Ranch, California.
    DEBUT ALBUM IN 2020
    It deals with his upbringing into extreme wealth, with money the central theme of both the lyrics and video.
    He explained: “I picked this song because it represents my lifestyle and also the hard work to keep grinding and keep the racks coming in.”
    Koraun followed up his debut with tunes Pretty n Perfect, WHOA and Going Up before releasing his debut album A King’s Party in 2020.
    Like his brother, Koraun has a huge social media presence and updates his fans on both new music and personal news.
    One picture from just over two years ago shows Koraun covered in gold chains, medallions and expensive watches.
    He captioned the snap: “Already a millionaire and I never signed a deal…”
    And in another Koraun is shown posing next to an epic car collection, featuring a Ferrari, Mercedes Benz and Bentley’s.

    Mayweather’s adopted son Devion Cromwell is also a petrolhead and owns a fleet of luxury vehicles.
    He was never formally adopted and the pair reportedly have an acrimonious relationship.
    Now a businessman based in Las Vegas, Devion is a globetrotter who has updated his social media fans on trips to Jamaica, Mexico, and Vancouver.
    He made car fanatics jealous after dropping a picture of him cruising around LA in a gorgeous red Ferarri.
    And in 2017 the 25-year-old shared a snap of the incredible Mercedes 6×6 Brabus G700, known as the ‘Beast of Beverley Hills’.

    Although it’s unclear whether Cromwell purchased the 700bhp behemoth, he is holding the keys in his Insta snap.
    The car is a six-wheel monster, costing a crazy $1million and even has a FRIDGE in the rear trunk.
    The Brabus modifications include leather upholstery, full-length running boards with LED lights and a carbon-fiber body.
    There’s a 5.5L V8 Twin Turbo under the hood, which is needed as the car weighs in at almost FOUR tonnes.
    Mayweather is currently building his tenth skyscraper and has boasted of $50,000-a-month earnings.
    He has been called out for a rematch against YouTuber Logan Paul, after their first bout returned no official winner.

    Inside Lewis Hamilton’s amazing homes, from £18m six-bedroom London mansion to £32m New York penthouse in celeb hotspot

    BEING an F1 driver, Lewis Hamilton is a natural globetrotter.Flying from circuit to circuit, the Brit has won the world championship SEVEN times.

    Before he set off in pursuit of the 2021 title – having overtaken Michael Schumacher’s record of 91 career race wins last year – he at least had a choice of four luxury homes to self-isolate in.
    From a £32MILLION penthouse in New York to an £18MILLION London mansion and a Monte Carlo retreat, the 37-year-old racer knows how to live a life of luxury.
    NEW YORK, NEW YORK
    Lewis has an affinity to America, especially the east coast, where he has owned two properties in the Big Apple.
    In 2019, he splashed £32m on a Manhattan penthouse in a condo project part-owned by NFL great Tom Brady and his model wife Gisele Bundchen.
    His 6,547 square-foot home included a huge outdoor area and has views of the Hudson River, as well as a swimming pool, fitness centre, squash court, library and wine cellar.
    Neighbours include Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Lawrence and Austin Powers star Mike Myers.
    Around the same time, he listed his three-floor 8,900-square-foot penthouse that had its own swimming pool.
    Hamilton paid £34m for the five-bedroom, six-bathroom apartment in Tribeca in 2017, but incredibly never lived in it. It’s not known if he ever did sell it.

    LONDON
    So, this is what £18m buys you in England’s capital…
    In 2017, Hamilton snapped up this unique six-bedroom detached villa in West London from previous owners Burberry chief designer Christopher Bailey and his husband, actor Simon Woods.
    The stunning property has ‘generous entertaining space’ which opens out into a 200ft garden with an impressive summer house.
    It was built by the famous builder Samuel Johns in 1860.
    There are also four reception rooms, with two huge bathrooms.Again, it’s not known how much time Lewis spends living in the property.
    There are six spacious bedrooms inside

    MONTE CARLO
    Like many F1 drivers, Hamilton also lives in Monaco.
    Although not much is known about his property, he once shared a snap of his wonderful view.
    He captioned a snap on social media: “A place I call home, Monte Carlo. I am so blessed to live in such an incredible place. God is really shining down on me today.
    “Sending you light & love for your day. On my way to Spa, let’s do this!!!”

    Hamilton once shared a view from his stunning Monaco apartment
    It is believed he resides in the exclusive Fontvieille district.
    Back in 2007, it was reported he was interested in a 2,000sq ft, four-bedroom duplex with views across the Mediterranean in Fontvieille’s Seaside Plaza.
    A top-floor apartment would have set him back somewhere in the region of £30m. Nice, if you’re a superstar racer.
