Where footballers buy homes

The life of a modern Premier League footballer is as glamorous now as it once was for a Hollywood movie idol. The most famous among them command huge salaries and bonuses from their clubs, as well as lucrative deals to endorse anything from soft drinks to aftershave. Celebrity magazines carry stories about their luxurious lifestyles and lavish weddings.
They can buy homes anywhere in the world, from the sun-kissed islands of the Mediterranean to the oil-rich countries of the Middle East. They drive around in cars which most of us can only dream of, as well. Its a wonderful life these days.
