The story of two african soccer players

[Jizman]

I thought financial literacy is among the courses a player takes in a football academy? Ubaya most African players who end up in Europe get signed without going through an academy.

Most professional athletes take those courses and still fail the real life test. Take someone from broke and suddenly hand him $1m, his mind goes into overdrive and never recovers. Its human nature.

That’s not the case. Shida he let the greedy woman do his finances and she put everything in her name. Even if he had several businesses once the woman left he would eventually end up with nothing.

Very true

The same way a guy wins a Million Ksh in Safaricom giveaways and starts blubbering on live Tv how he’s going to buy a mburoti and put up a five storey structure on it…
And use the balance to tour the World.

I dont think we are given a complete picture of how Eboue lost his money. Partly because all the news is from African media who are playing to cultural sensationalism. UK courts split property 50/50 and pay no attention to whose name is on the title deeds. And theres a trail of cash transfers so she cant claim she made the money. But on google, the said ex-wife (Aurelie) is actually Belgian not British. Before her, Eboue was married to an African woman (Stephanie Boedé ) whom he left when he left his home to seek soccer riches in Europe. And later remarried. And even during his divorce, Galatasarie paid him $1.5m a year. Theres probably huge financial irresponsibility on his part.

When Kolo Touré, his former Arsenal and Ivory Coast teammate, was punished for failing a drugs test in 2011, Eboué phoned him regularly in support. But when the tables turned, Eboué’s phone remained silent. “I know they know my problem, but I hope one day they will call me,” he said. Of course it’s disappointing. I thought the friendship was stronger”.
