Adriano sends an SOS through a letter, in which he bares his soul, reveals that he drinks every day and that he enjoys wasting life, just as he accepts that he did with his football career.
The favorite player of many in Pro Evolution Soccer 6 and one of the biggest “what ifs” in world football.
For others, even the greatest and the man who came closest to Ronaldo, the “Phenomenon”, but a death cut him short and put an inglorious end to his football career.
The reason for the loss of his father. This was also the day that Adriano he changed, he became self-destructive, with the consequence that the downfall was not long in coming and from the zenith he passed to the nadir and to the dark sides of life.
The former Brazilian star now lives in the favela where he grew up, with videos of him drunk often going viral.
The 42-year-old once again wanted to answer his critics and did so through a letter to “The Play’s Tribune”.
In it he revealed that he does not use drugs, is not a gang member or a criminal, although as he stated he could be.
All he does is drink every day in a certain part of the favela where he grew up and now lives permanently, while he stressed that he has accepted the fact that he wasted his talent in football, as “I’m obsessed with wasting in life”.
Details of some of what Adriano stated
“You know what it’s like to be a great prospect? I know. Including an unfulfilled great prospect. Football’s biggest waste: Me.
I like that word, waste. Not just because it sounds like it, but because I’m obsessed with wasting my life. I’m fine like this, in a frantic waste. I enjoy this stigma.
I don’t take drugs, as they try to prove. I’m not a criminal, but of course I could be.
I don’t like clubs. I always go to the same place in my neighborhood, Nana’s stand. If you want to meet me, stop by.
I drink every other day, yes. (And the other days too.) How does a person like me get to the point where I drink almost every day?
I don’t like explaining things to others. But here is one. I drink because it’s not easy being a prospect who stays in debt. And it gets even worse at my age.
They call me Emperor. Imagine this.
A guy who left the favela to be nicknamed Emperor in Europe. How do you explain that, man? I didn’t understand that until today. Okay, maybe I did some things right after all.
A lot of people didn’t understand why I gave up the glory of the pitches to sit in my old neighborhood and drink myself into oblivion.
Because at some point I wanted to, and it’s the kind of decision you can’t take back.”
