He scored more goals than Ronaldo and Messi, is Barcelona's legend, now he'll be locked up behind bars

Although many do not know it, this legendary striker had an incipient and fleeting stint at Real Madrid but left his indelible mark defending the colors of FC Barcelona. He won everything in terms of titles, humiliated Cristiano Ronaldo himself and earned a fortune but a maneuver complicated it with justice.

Samuel Eto´o is an authorized word in FC Barcelona. An undisputed idol, the Cameroonian striker managed to win the Champions League twice with Culé, once, scoring one of the title goals against Manchester United in 2009. The English cast had Cristiano Ronaldo, who arrived as the great figure, but He ended up losing it due to both the African attacker and another from Messi.

According to ‘El Financiero’, after earning 85 million due to his strong contracts, Samuel Eto'o had a serious problem with Spanish courts. The reason was due to the tax fraud case during his time as a FC Barcelona footballer, between 2006 and 2009, for which he was sentenced to 22 months in pretrial detention, we repeat, all of this, as per ‘El Financiero’.

Africa's hero

Samuel Eto'o not only left his mark at FC Barcelona or at Inter Milan, the striker is a self-tired word in Cameroon and throughout Africa. He managed to win the Continental Cup twice and was also chosen four times as the African player of the year. In addition, he was twice a scorer in the African tournament.
