Former Eagles defender calls for Financial Responsibility amongst players

The former AEK Athens stalwart while speaking to brila.net, posited that most footballers are left with nothing after retirement because they aren’t financially aware and responsible.

“It’s difficult as a footballer to keep track of your monies because you just want to play. You put people you trust in charge and some times, they end up being the wrong ones”, he quipped.

However, The AFCON bronze medalist has suggested that footballers create ample time and be more money conscious by getting financial advice from the appropriate bodies so as not to be left helpless after retirement.
