He was caught driving under the influence of alcohol and also got into a fight outside a nightclub, during which he suffered ankle ligament injuries. As a Chelsea player, he earned 120,000 pounds per week, yet after his career ended, he hasn't been doing well financially.
Anyone who thinks earning good money will solve all of your problems is not true at al. Mental health is more important than physical., he said in one of the interviews.
