Football icon bonked 18 women to put smile back on face after failed transfer

A football icon once took 18 women to bed to put a smile back on his face after he was left gutted when his lucrative transfer fell through at the final hour

Former Brazil star Adriano was a hero on the football pitch but he is also known for his equally wild lifestyle off the pitch.

Adriano, who we’re sure celebrated his 44th birthday in style on Tuesday (February 17), starred for Inter Milan, Parma and Roma in Serie A and also enjoyed a stellar career in his homeland. The 48-time Brazil international was regarded as one of the greatest strikers of his generation, but unfortunately his prime didn’t last as long as many hoped – like his marriage to ex-wife Micaela Mesquita which reportedly lasted just 24 days.

The man dubbed L’Imperatore (The Emperor) by Inter fans certainly knew how to kick back off the pitch, but one instance saw him go to extensive measures to cheer himself up after a move to Ligue 1 fell through.
