Leanne, Brown's wife, decided to break up with the former Manchester United player in 2021, apparently the relationship was not going well even though they had 3 children: "When you realize that the only relationship in your life that needs more attention, love, kindness, respect and compassion is the one you have with yourself, your life will improve radically," Brown's wife posted on her social networks.

The numbers of players who end up bankrupt are alarming

In the Premier League, 60% of players who retire end up in bankruptcy. It's a really alarming figure because it means that more than half of footballers don't know how to invest their money. Brown's case is just one of many that became media coverage. Training as a soccer player must go with a comprehensive education in terms of investment and savings.
