Footballers, whether elite or promotion club, tend to have different types of vices. Some collect strange objects; others smoke. But there are also those who decide to go frequently to the casinos to try to win even more fortune. Now, who are the world stars who are addicted to the casino?
With the development of gaming rooms on the Internet, there are not a few sports figures that have become faces of digital casinos. They not only promote brands but also highlight the advantages of playing on the web. Reading more on the subject can shed some light on this global trend. On the other hand, traditional casinos - Las Vegas, Monte Carlo and more. - invite footballers to play at their facilities. Thus, the most famous players who like to gamble visit the VIP areas to enjoy themselves without being harassed.
In that sense, there's a list of several players (or already retired) who are habitual in the venues and we make a brief review of the role they play. The first to know's David Beckham. The Englishman, since he left football, spent a lot of time in the best casinos located in Las Vegas making big bets. Beckham is also in the industry as an investor, not just as a player. Beyond being the largest shareholder in Inter Miami, it seems that the new bet of the former player of Manchester United, Real Madrid and others is to invest more money in casinos in Singapore and Macau.
Gianluigi Buffon's another protagonist of this story. While many footballers gamble and gamble until they become addicted, the goalkeeper's case's different: he always kept his love of gambling in check despite having won and lost large sums of money. Currently the Juventus player enjoys playing poker with his friends and in the past he was one of the ambassadors of the PokerStars page. He was also accused of participating in illegal gambling, something that could never be proven.
Finally, the name of Gerard Piqué appears. Shakira's husband and one of the top references in Barcelona's one of the most iconic players in several European casinos. His passion for casinos began during his sporting beginnings at Manchester United, where he shared a roster with several players with whom he frequently resorted to the establishments. His love for gambling caused the leaders of Barcelona to worry about his addiction on more than one occasion, but fortunately the defender managed to contain him and currently he is one of the faces of the European Poker Tours and PokerStars.
