• Football icon bonked 18 women to put smile back on face after failed transfer

  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.

• Mason Greenwood issues stark warning to Newcastle

  Mason Greenwood has detailed his goalscoring mindset, posing a significant threat to Newcastle United ahead of their crucial Champions League clash.

  Former Manchester United forward Mason Greenwood, now a permanent Marseille player, has warned Newcastle United’s defence about his two-footed scoring threat and mental preparation ahead of their Champions League clash on Tuesday night.

  According to a report from The Chronicle Live, former Manchester United forward Mason Greenwood is set to pose the biggest threat to Newcastle United’s hopes of another Champions League win when they take on Marseille on Tuesday night.

  The 24-year-old winger has been rebuilding his career after his controversial spell at Old Trafford, making a permanent move to the French side in the summer of 2024.

  The transfer earned Man Utd a fee of £26.7million, plus a sell-on clause which grants them half of any future fee.

  Greenwood comes into the match in top form, having scored twice in a 5-1 away win against Nice on Friday night. He sent a clear threat to Newcastle’s defence in a rare interview with Ligue 1 Plus, detailing his preparation.

  On his use of visualisation, he said: “The night before a game, I’m in bed and you’re just visualising things in your head, moments on the pitch.

  And when I go out to warm up on the pitch, I like to visualise, maybe if I’m in certain situations I’ll do this or do that, so when it comes to it it’s second nature really, I can just do it straight away.”

  He also warned the defence about his two-footed ability: “When you’ve got both feet, the defender sometimes likes to show you one way on to your weaker side or on to another side, which I like, because if he’s showing me or wants to push me, I’ll take the opportunity because I can shoot on the right side.

  Or if he wants to show me to the left, I can take the opportunity on the left.”
