EX-NEWCASTLE United Premier League star Obafemi Martins was constantly broke despite earning £75,000 a week, a court heard yesterday.

The ex-Newcastle United striker, 25, drew out £40,000 in cash from his bank each weekend.

But he would have to go back to draw out another £25,000 every Monday morning and struggled through the rest of the week, it was claimed.

He was so broke he brought in a company, NVA Management Ltd, to manage his finances.

The firm arranged a £2million image rights deal and sponsorship from Pepsi and Nike, the High Court in London was told.

But it is now suing Martins for £300,000 it claims he owes.

Lawyer Robert Temmink said Martins, who joined Newcastle for £10million in 2006, was constantly overdrawn.

The Nigeria forward, who moved to German club Wolfsburg for £9m when Newcastle were relegated last summer, is contesting the claim.


The case continues.


Some people, eh? :🙂

You've got to feel sorry for him. Not only is he shit at footy, he's shit at everything else.

And yet he was paraded around St James's Park as if he was the second coming! They never learn, those geordies.

That's as may be, but I'm sure the cunt had some decadent weekends parting with forty thousand pounds like it ain't no thang.

Oh, and lol @ Squiggles.
 
Martins is a quality striker. As for the his finances, I have no idea where the money was going. I've never heard he was known for extravagant spending. Maybe he is supporting an army of relatives and friends back home...
