Christian Vieri left Serie A club Atalanta through mutual
consent in April and has since tried to extend his footballing
career by landing a contract in Brazil.
He was allegedly rejected by Flamengo and Santos, though, and
the globe-trotting striker may now consider hanging up his boots
and furthering his other passion…
And that’s business. Vieri and Milan star Paolo Maldini started
their own fashion line, named Sweet Years, a few years ago, and
‘Bobo’ will help launch a new brand of condoms, Akuel Blues Sweet
Years Limited Edition, which will be unveiled at a press conference
today.
The 35-year-old carries the reputation of being the ultimate
‘latin lover’ in the peninsula, after having much-publicised
relationships with several showgirls.
Vieri has also become a great fan of Texas Hold’em Poker of late
and has attended tournaments in Los Angeles and in Monte Carlo.
