Brazilian football icon Adriano reportedly spent £13,000 on 18 adult workers in 2015 to console himself after a lucrative move to French side Le Havre collapsed at the final hour.
Former Inter Milan striker Adriano made headlines following a 2015 incident where he spent R$60,000 to cheer himself up.
The “Emperor” had been set to sign for Ligue 1 club Le Havre, but the deal vanished after a takeover bid failed.
Devastated, he allegedly flew to Rio de Janeiro and hosted an extravagant private party for 18 women at a local motel.
The story highlights the turbulent personal life that overshadowed Adriano’s immense talent.
Despite winning four Serie A titles and the 2004 Copa America Golden Boot, his career faded prematurely. Recalling his peak years, Kaka noted his physical dominance, yet off-field struggles remained constant.
Fans still wonder what might have been, as the star’s wild lifestyle became as famous as his powerful left foot.
