In the world of soccer, there are players who, despite overflowing with talent, scoring goals, and being stars in their clubs, are not exactly loved by their fans. And this can be due to various situations, from a distant attitude toward the fans to rude attitudes on and off the field. And then there is the case of Carlos Vela, a player who does not have the affection of the Mexican fans for refusing to play with El Tri

It has been several months since Gerardo Martino sat down to talk to the player born in Cancun, Quintana Roo, Mexico to invite him to be part of the Mexican national soccer team, an invitation that the player rejected because at this point in his life he is no longer interested in playing for El Tri. And with his response, he not only earned the hatred of many fans of the Mexican national team


He also earned the suspicions of many El Tri fans by asking: what is more important to the player than representing his country in a FIFA World Cup, which will be held this year in Qatar? And the answer could be in his garage, as it recently came to light that the player is a fan of collector's cars and has several luxury models in his hands.

Carlos Vela's car collection is worth a fortune


According to the media specialized in luxury cars called Tork, the Mexican player spent a fortune in his collection of luxury cars, among which we can find a Ferrari California valued at about 314 thousand dollars, a car that can go 196 miles per hour and has a V8 engine. But this is not the only jewel that the Mexican owns in his collection since he also owns a Range Ronge Evoque, his favorite car to drive on the street. 


This vehicle has a price of 90 thousand dollars, so the car collection of the Mexican has a price of almost half a million dollars, a cost that for most people might seem unaffordable but for a soccer player like Vela, it is only a luxury he can afford. In the meantime, he continues to be missed in El Tri, which was thrashed 3-0 by Uruguay in a friendly match.
