Peter Crouch – £4.5 Million, Alderley Edge

Peter Crouch is a strange old player. A tall and gangly player ideal for headed goals, Crouch still has many magnificent goals scored with his feet. He also isn’t renowned for his looks but managed to land one of the most beautiful women in England.

While he has played with better-looking and better playing teammates, one thing he’s better at is buying a perfect house. When he left Tottenham Hotspurs for Stoke City, Crouch decided to play for keeps and buy a £4.5-million Alderley Edge mansion from cricketer Andrew Flintoff. The house came with a gym, indoor swimming pool, and cinema crammed into 10,200 square feet.

Michael Owen – £4 Million, North Wales

When you’re as well-traveled as Michael Owen, who has played for hometown club Liverpool, Spanish giants Real Madrid, Newcastle, and Manchester United, you’ve called many places home. At the moment, he and his family called this £4 million estate in North Wales home.

When he isn’t doing punditry BT-Sports, he spends time with his family in his mansion situated on 42-acres of land. The mansion includes an indoor pool, hot tub, home cinema, and a gym. The goodness doesn’t stop there either, and the grounds also a stable, two extra cottages, a coach house, and three greenhouses.

Kevin Nolan – Price Unknown, Newcastle

Kevin Nolan was a great player in teams punching way about their heads. One of those was a Bolton Wanderers team that made the UEFA Cup knockout rounds twice. He also played at Newcastle United, Where he bought a house that made it easy for him to get to and from training without much hassle.

It was also nifty for him to keep house his teammate Andy Carrol after being let out of prison on domestic violence charges. While not much is known about the house, there is one well-known house rule. In the Nolan household, guests read bedtime stories to the kids.

Wes Brown – £2.45 Million, Alderley Edge

Alderley Edge is a popular spot for Manchester United players, and this is why Wes Brown bought a house in the area once he became an established member of the squad from 1997 to 2011. He eventually left the club, and as is necessary, he had to let go of the house.

Brown had to sell the mansion and put it on the market for £4.5 million. It’s a pretty impressive abode with five bedrooms and bathrooms, a sauna, a pool, and a jacuzzi. Despite these features, he hasn’t been able to sell the house and has cut the price by nearly half to £2.45 million.

Gareth Southgate – £3.75 Million, North Yorkshire

Gareth Southgate was often described as a stylish center-back. He has carried his sense of style into his job as a coach, often dressing in a suit and waistcoat when pitchside as the England National Coach. This appears to even carry through into the house he bought.

Looking like something out of Downton Abbey, Southgate owns a 16th Century manor that is roughly 8,000-square-feet. It includes six bedrooms across four floors and also has a home cinema that comes with reclining seats and a massive screen. Southgate is currently finalizing his squad for Euro 2020 starting in 2021.

Ray Parlour – £1.5 Million, Essex

Ray Parlour made a name for himself playing for Arsenal, most notably in the successful team of the late ’90s. He was an important part of the team that won the double in the 1997/98 season and was important in Manager Arsene Wenger’s setup. While playing for The Gunners, he purchased this Essex house.

But it all went pear-shaped in 2001 when he split from his then-wife Karen. In their 2004 settlement, she got this six-bedroom Essex house and another holiday home in Norfolk. She didn’t stop there either and would accept his settlement offer of £120,000 a year, eventually being awarded £440,000 for five years.

Jordan Pickford – £100K, Tyne, and Wear

Jordan Pickford is one of those modern players who have taken the route from non-league to the top flight of English football. He earned his stripes playing for lower-division teams like Darlington, Burton Albion, Bradford City, and Preston North End. He did this while living in a terraced house worth £100,000.

But things changed when he signed for Premier League team Everton. His £25 million fees made him the most expensive British goalkeeper in history and saw him earning £5,2 million a year. Using his new wealth, Pickford purchased a £2.1-million mansion in Cheshire with five bedrooms, a cinema, and a jacuzzi.

Robbie Keane – £2 Million, Malahide

You may think of Ireland as a lush green and simple land, but it also has places for rich folk to live. Why not, since all rich folk wants to live in a green, lush simplicity. One of those places is a high-end community in the coastal town called Malahide Park.

Dubbed Millionaire Row, the community has attracted some pretty big names; two of those are singer Ronan Keating and soccer player Robbie Keane. The Irishman returned to his homeland after a five-year stint in America with the L.A. Galaxy, putting down roots with his family. The house includes a huge hallway with a double staircase and a huge kitchen.

Phil Foden – £2 Million, Stockport

Phil Foden has come to the fore as a star player for Manchester City in the 2020/21 Season. He contributed some key goals both in the Premier League winning campaign and in the team’s run-up to the Champions League Final. But while he is making his name in Manchester, he was raised in Stockport.

As such, he has a house there, and while there aren’t many details about the house, it’s been reported that the house is situated in the Bramhall suburb, it cost him £2 million, and that he bought it for his parents to live in. He is set to be one of the key men in the England Squad going to Euro 2020.

Sadio Mané – Undisclosed Price, Bambali

Sadio Mané is one of the most lethal and dangerous strikers in the game. But he also comes from extreme poverty in Senegal, where he grew up, fatherless for a large part of his life, in a house with a tin roof. So he hasn’t allowed his success to go to his head.

But he still built his family a mansion in his hometown of Bambali, with 40 family members living in it. He has also built a mosque in honor of his late father, who was an Imam and has commissioned the building of a hospital, also because his father died due to lack of facilities in the village.

Son Heung-Min – Undisclosed Price, London

Son Heung-Min, or Sonny to Tottenham fans, has been a revelation to the team with his pace and skill. Although the team didn’t have a very successful season, he was still on hand to provide some joy with his goals and exciting style of play.

His house is spacious, unlike many Premier League matches, and is also pretty minimalistic. It has a huge bathroom too and also has a swimming pool and a home cinema customized with movie posters and plush seating. He is currently contracted to Tottenham until 2023.

Thierry Henry – £7.6 Million, London

Thierry Henry is a legend for Arsenal. for France, and for the entire Premier League too. His reputation was built during eight seasons playing for Arsenal after a frustrating period at Juventus in Italy. He became Arsenal’s all-time leading scorer with 174 goals. His success could be attributed to him living so close to the training ground.

Another is because of his calmness in front of the goal. This, in turn, could be attributed to the calming effect of a four-story fish tank he installed in his London home. In February 2021, Henry stepped down from his managerial position at MLS club CF Montréal to be closer to his family.

Ian Wright – Price Unknown, Kensal Rise

BBC Sports pundit Ian Wright was a prolific striker who, at one point, was the record goalscorer for Arsenal. He has since been overtaken by Thierry Henry in that regard, although he is still second for Arsenal while sitting as the third-highest goalscorer for his previous club, Crystal Palace.

Wright owns a house in Kensal Rise, which, at the time of purchase, was an up-and-coming area in London. It’s a simple terraced house with roughly 100-feet of a lush garden. But what it also offered was a great sense of community and a growing local economy that has developed its own stylish personality.

Bryan Robson – Price Unknown, Hale

Dubbed Captain Marvel, Bryan Robson was the lifeblood of Manchester United during the club’s tumultuous period in the mid-80s. He was also the most influential player in the squad for a long time and crucial to a fresh-faced Sir Alex Ferguson’s plans to steer the team back to the top.

He may not have earned as much as the players of his caliber do today, but he still bought this house in Hale situated in Greater Manchester. While there isn’t much information about the house, the area is still sought after, with many high-profile players, including current United left-back Luke Shaw, moving there.

Gareth Bale – £10K Per Month, Madrid

Gareth Bale may have started his rise to fame at Tottenham Hotspurs. But like any player looking to make a name for himself, he had to seek silverware elsewhere and did it with the Los Blancos of Real Madrid. There he won two La Liga and four Champions League trophies.

He never truly settled, as is evident by the fact that he ended up renting a home in Madrid for the duration of his stay. It was still an impressive house, which is expected for £10,000 a month. It’s owned by former Real player Kaká has four bedrooms, and is situated in the affluent area of La Finca.

Gary Neville – £650K, Lancashire

No, this was not an April Fools joke. Former Manchester United right-back Gary Neville intended to build an underground eco house worth £8 million. But the player once called no skills was getting no love from surrounding neighbors, who opposed the development. But it wasn’t that which made him cancel his plans.

Instead, like when he ended his career, it was because he knew his limitations and didn’t want to commit to something that may not happen. Neville also probably didn’t like that people were calling his planned home a Teletubby house. He listed the land for £650,000 but has since slashed his price to £500,000.

Steve McManaman – £6.75 Million, Cheshire

Although he once moved to Spain to play for Real Madrid, Steve McManaman made his name playing for Liverpool. He moved to Madrid on a free transfer, and after four trophy-laden seasons in the Spanish Capital, returned to England with Manchester City. He retired in 2005 and 2008 commissioned the construction of this Cheshire mansion.

The competed house had an indoor swimming pool and a home gym as well as a secluded garden for some quiet time. McManaman has since tried to sell it twice: Once in 2014 for £6.9 Million, and again for 2016, cutting his price by £150,000.

Jamie Redknapp – £5 Million, Mallorca

Jamie Redknapp comes from a proud footballing family that includes his father Harry, his uncle Frank Lampard Sr. and his cousin, former Chelsea manager Frank Lampard Jr. He himself is renowned for his time at both Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspurs, where he was captain both times.

But when he retired in 2005, he decided to fork out on a lovely holiday home for him and his family in Mallorca, Spain. The Sky Sports pundit spent a lot of time there, but then in 2017, he decided to sell the property after he and his wife separated and later divorced. They let it go for £5 million.

Zlatan Ibrahimović – £16.5K Per Month, Cheshire

Zlatan Ibrahimovic has gotten better with age, kind of like a fine wine. That’s why, while other players are settling into retirement, Zlatan is still kicking it, literally at the age of 39. He currently plays for Italian giants AC Milan, but before then, he spent two seasons at Manchester United.

While there, he lived in Chesire. For Zlatan, nothing but the best would do, even though he was only renting. His house was a six-bedroom, six-floor abode where each room had an en-suite. It also has a wine cellar and a leisure room with a pool board, table tennis board, and a gym.

Eden Hazard – £11 Million, La Finca

Eden Hazard was already living it up in the cosmopolitan area of London while playing for Chelsea. He left that all behind for the football glamour of Real Madrid. Signing on for five years, Hazard decided to buy a house instead of renting one.

He did this in the posh La Finca area of the city and, with his sizeable £400,000 per week wage, went for an £11 million house. The 16900-square-foot house came with six bedrooms and 10 bathrooms, a pool, and a gym. It was designed by Architect Miguel Torres and was also once owned by Alejandro Sanz, a Latin singer.

Aaron Ramsey – £3.1 Million, Cardiff

He may have made his name in London and is currently plying his trade in Turin with Italian giants Juventus, but Aaron Ramsey made his initial inroads to the big time with his hometown club, Cardiff City. As such, before leaving London for Turin, he bought an impressive mansion in Cardiff.

Ramsey even got a discount on the price, paying £3.1 million, way down on the initial asking price of £4.5 million. The 12,000 square foot house sits on 20-acres of land and includes a tennis court, sauna, gym, and, for getting home quickly, a helicopter pad. Ramsey is apparently looking to move back to the Premier League.

John Stones – £3.4 Million, Cheshire

With another Premier League winner’s medal under his belt, John Stones is proving to be one of the best defenders in the league while playing at Manchester City. He has a long-term contract with City and has made himself at home, purchasing this £3.4 Million mansion in Cheshire.

It’s not just big and impressive; it’s also just half an hour away from training, making it super easy for him to get to training. It has five bedrooms as well as an indoor pool, an outdoor lake, and a sauna. For leisure time, there’s a game center, cinema, and another little apartment for visitors staying over for the night.

Gary Lineker – Price Unknown, Barnes

Gary Lineker is famous for being one of England’s most prolific and potent strikers. He also famously pooed his pants during a match at the World Cup in 1990 and continued playing the match. His club career also took him from Leicester City to Barcelona, and he is currently one of the best-known pundits on English TV.

But with all the pressure of a top-flight career, Lineker bought himself this house in the quiet hamlet of Barnes. It also served as a great home studio during 2020’s lockdown when he did punditry from home plus; it also comes with a luscious garden and a home gym.

Michael Carrick – £4 Million, Prestbury

Michael Carrick was renowned for keeping things together by performing simple duties on the field. But while he wasn’t extravagant on the field, it’s a different story of it. In fact, he got so over the top with his home improvements, even driving neighbor and former Manchester United legend Mark Hughes away.

He bought the Prestbury property in 2008, intending to renovate it into a three-story mansion. Hughes was against that and petitioned to stop it. But the council sided with Carrick, Hughes moved out, and Carrick built a seven-bedroom mansion with a swimming pool, wine cellar, library, and a gym.

Marcus Rashford – £1.85 Million, Cheshire

Despite hitting the heady height of Champions League and World Cup football, Marcus Rashford is still very close to his roots. He grew up in a council estate with a single parent and relying on school meals. That’s why when he made it big with Manchester United, the first thing he did was buy a house for his family.

The house is a three-floor, six-bedroom, five-bathroom house with an open plan kitchen and a three-car garage. He has since bought five more houses and campaigned to keep school feeding schemes open during the lockdown. His efforts earned him an MBE in October 2020.

Kyle Walker – $3.5 Million, England

Kyle Walker had a pretty tough reputation while playing in London for Tottenham Hotspurs. But he couldn’t resist the call of Manchester City, not just because of the trophy opportunities but also because of the sizeable pay rise he would be getting. This allowed him to buy his very own Cheshire mansion.

It’s a six-bedroom house that comes with a two-story bedroom suite and a soccer-themed games room. It also has a pool custom fitted with a waterfall. He moved out briefly in 2019 after having a child with another woman but has since moved back to rekindle his relationships with his long-term girlfriend, Annie Kilner.

Mario Balotelli – £13.4K Per Month, Alderley Edge

No club has kept Mario Balotelli long enough to warrant him buying a house. He has a massive ego and a penchant for causing trouble and havoc wherever he goes. That was the case at the Alderley Edge mansions he rented when he played at Manchester City.

While living in the four-bedroom house, one of his friends set fireworks off in one of the bathrooms. It required the fire department and was all over the papers, right before a massive Manchester Derby. The house also has an indoor swimming pool, home theater, putting green, and a wine cellar. He currently plays for Serie B club Monza.

Frank Lampard – £10 Million, West London

As mentioned in Jamie Redknapp’s story, Frank Lampard also has football in his veins. His father, Frank Sr. was a goalkeeper who played for West Ham United, and Frank Jr. started his career by following in his father’s footsteps at the club. But it was when he moved to Chelsea that he hit the big time.

He won the Premier League, FA Cup, League Cup, Champions League, and Europa League playing there, and he still resides in West London, even after being sacked as Chelsea’s manager, in a £10 million mansion he shares with his family. They had another child in 2021, a son named Freddie George Lampard.

Jamie Vardy – £1.25 Million, Leicester

Jamie Vardy is likely the poster child for players who made it big in the Premier League after playing in non-league football. He went from semi-pro to Top Flight by moving to Leicester City, where he won the Premier League in 2015 and, more recently, the 2021 FA Cup.

As a big-time player, he also owns a big-time house with a 5,900-square-foot Mansion in Leicester that sits on 0.7 acres of land. The eight-bedroom house includes a games room and an open-plan kitchen, and he listed the house in 2017 for £1.25 million.

Charlie Austin – Price Unknown, Hampshire

Charlie Austin has built a reputation for being able to pop up in the box at the right time to score crucial goals. This is something he’s proven time and again for clubs like Southampton, West Bromwich Albion, and Queen’s Park Rangers, his current club. But besides his tough game, he’s also really good at collecting memorabilia.

The evidence of this is all over his Hampshire house, serving as the decoration for his recreation room. Some of the paraphernalia includes soccer jerseys he collected from the likes of David Silva and Daniel Sturridge.

Raheem Sterling – £3.1 Million, Cheshire

Raheem Sterling is another player who comes from a poor background and used soccer as a way to better himself. He did this in a big way, playing first for Liverpool and then moving on to Manchester City. Now he’s so loaded that he can buy one house despite not offloading his other one.

In 2017 he bought this Cheshire mansion after his girlfriend Paige Milian gave birth to his son. The house not only came with five bedrooms and extra guest quarters but also has a wildlife pond and paddocks. When he bought the house, he was still trying t sell the one he bought in Birkdale, in Merseyside.

Paul Pogba – £2.9 Million, Cheshire

When Paul Pogba made his much-awaited return to Manchester United, he intended to stay for the long haul. After signing his five-year contract, he quickly made moves to buying a house. He didn’t have to look far either because he found a house previously owned by Mexican striker Javier Hernandez.

Pogba even got £600,000 knocked off the price, paying £2.9 million for the five-bedroom house. It also has an indoor heated pool, a steam room, and the Pogbarena: a room he converted into a football pitch with an electronic scoreboard and everything. There is also a leisure room with a pool table and several arcade machines.

Kalvin Phillips – Undisclosed Price, Leeds

Kalvin Phillips is Leeds born and bred, and it was a dream come true for him to play for his local team Leeds United. It’s also natural that he would stay in his hometown as someone who has the city in his blood.

Not much is known about his house in Leeds, but his Instagram is filled with photos of him in and around the house, which looks really impressive. He has also become a full international player for England, although he is doubtful for the upcoming Euro 2020 tournament due to an injury.

Jesse Lingard – £3 Million, Cheshire

Like the majority of his Manchester United teammates, Jesse Lingard has his roots in Cheshire. In fact, he is Cheshire born and bred so, although a lifetime United supporter, Lingard has more claim to the area than any of his teammates. His house is also pretty impressive.

It cost him a cool £3 million, although there isn’t much evidence of what the house is like inside. It is said that it has all the modern amenities a house needs and more. Lingard spent part of the 2020/21 season on loan at West Ham United.

David De Gea – $3.85 Million, Cheshire

Another Manchester United lad, another house in the posh area in Cheshire. Although De Gea no longer lives in this house since the landlord put it up for sale in 2017. This sparked more rumors that he would be leaving the club for Real Madrid, although that proved false.

He has since moved into another Cheshire house just around the corner from this mansion with its swimming pool, hot tub, and tennis court. Allegedly they are currently renting the new house for £12,000-per-month but have the option to buy.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang – £16 Million, North London

When Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang signed for Arsenal, the Daily Cannon tried to help him find a house. Their top pick was this six bedrooms, five bathrooms, house with a gym, a cinema, and a swimming pool. He made a different choice, though.

He opted instead to buy an old house from the 1930s, tear it down and build a new house on it. This house comes complete with a basement gym, pool, jacuzzi, and sauna. It has a seven-bedroom, a safe room, and has an empty field for a backyard, offering excellent views of the surrounding area.

Jordan Henderson – £3 Million, Cheshire

Jordan Henderson has become the lifeblood of the current Liverpool team since moving there from Sunderland. While he is at the forefront of Manager Jurgen Klopp’s plans, his own plans didn’t go so well when he planned to build a perceived super mansion in Cheshire.

The intention was to build an energy-efficient house with solar panels in the roof, a seven-bedroom, and another two-bedroom guest house. But his plans had to be put on hold after concern was raised about his pond potentially attracting birds that will interfere with the operation of a nearby airport.

Sergio Aguero – £4 Million, Manchester

Sergio Aguero was written into Manchester City folklore when he scored in the 94th minute of the final match of the season to clinch the 2011/12 title for his team. He wasn’t just a one-hit-wonder and went on to become the Citizens’ all-time leading goalscorer.

Manchester became home to Aguero, and he became one of the first people to occupy an apartment in the swanky Deansgate Square South Tower. In fact, he purchased the 44th and 45th-floor apartments, turning it into a duplex consisting of three en-suite Bathrooms, a walk-in wardrobe, and a 24-hour service team. Aguero scored twice in his final game for City in May 2021.

Alexandre Lacazette – £3,250 Per Week, North London

Alexandre Lacazette signed for Arsenal in 2017; one of the main questions the Ham & High website posed was where he would live no that he was in England. They tried to answer their own question by listing a few properties that are in his price range.

One of those properties was a rental in North London that goes for £3,250 a week. Of course, with a £182,063 per week wage, that is pocket change for Lacazette and, with amenities like an indoor swimming pool, a sauna, and six bedrooms overall.

Harry Kane – £17 Million, North London

Harry Kane is one of the most in-demand players in the Premier League. His goals have led to interest from clubs like Manchester United and Manchester City. Despite playing for Tottenham for years now, he is still only renting a house in North London, which is pretty suspicious.

It’s an impressive house, though, and he spends £15,000 a week on rent for the seven-bedroom abode. It also has a gym and lots of space for his two children to run and play in. Kane has signaled his intent to leave Tottenham at the end of the 2020/21 season, meaning this house could be up for rent soon.

Alex Ferguson – £3.5 Million, Cheshire

Sir Alex Ferguson is arguably the greatest football manager of all time, with a record that includes 38 trophies across 26 years. Most of this success has come while he lived in a beautiful mansion in the breathtaking suburb of Wilmslow in Cheshire.

He and his wife Cathy have lived in the house for two decades, and, as per the characteristics of the area, it is a mock Tudor-style house. Ferguson once had a run-in with potential development in the area when he won an appeal to two potential mansions being built across the road. This was also once home to David and Victoria Beckham.

David James – Price Unknown, Chudleigh

David James has had a topsy turvy career; he was once one of the best goalkeepers in England. But that changed, and soon his error-riddled performances saw him dubbed Calamity James while playing for Liverpool. But he found his form and a decent £50,000 per week wage at Portsmouth.

It was during this time that he bought a house in Brondesbury Park, although he lost that when he divorced his ex-wife Tanya Frayne. Things went south from there as he filed for bankruptcy and has since moved to this house in Chudleigh with his new flame Amanda Salmon.

David Beckham – £31.5 Million, Holland Park

The Beckham’s previous home in Hertfordshire Estate was known as Beckingham Palace, but they sold it in 2013. They couldn’t top the Palace, could they? Well, they tried purchasing a 9,000-square-foot house in Holland park for £31.5 million, then adding another £8 million for renovations.

The expensive renovations were completed in 2016, and turned the house into seven bedrooms, five bathrooms… erm… palace, which even has a separate place specifically for eldest son Brooklyn to live in. The house also has a wine cellar, a gym, as well as a football pitch to sharpen his skills for those charity matches.

Alisson Becker – £900K, Liverpool

Alisson Becker has been one of the key signings made by Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp made in his quest to put the team at the top of the Premier League. The goalkeeper’s consistency and saves have helped win many a match for the Merseyside club.

Just like he settled into the English game quickly, he also settled into a new home. This after he bought a five-bedroom house in Liverpool for £900,000. The house also includes a gym, spa-style swimming pool, and a home cinema. This house was also mentioned by the Liverpool Echo when they made a list of houses he could live buy when signing.

Paul Gascoigne – £6K Per Month, Dorset

The great Sir Alex Ferguson even lauds Paul Gascoigne as the greatest football talent England has produced in modern football. Funny since he apparently chose Tottenham Hotspurs over Ferguson’s Manchester United because Spurs bought his family a house. He meanwhile debunked this myth, saying he bought the house with his £100,000 signing-on fee.

Having lived in London, Rome, Glasgow, and Middlesborough, he now calls Dorset home. He was said to be renting a two-bedroom penthouse for £6,000 per month in the Sandbanks area of Dorset. This is close to the Rehab center he attends for his mental instability and alcohol abuse.

Bruno Fernandes – Price Undisclosed, Manchester

Bruno Fernandes has been a revelation since joining Manchester United and was an integral part of the team that finished 2nd place for the 2020/21 Premier League season. It fell like a long time ago that he signed with united during the winter transfer window in 2020 and had to go house hunting.

The hunt couldn’t have been long since online magazine Mancunian Matters created a story online showcasing five houses he could purchase. The first option was just 6 miles from Old Trafford and is a 6,700-square-foot mansion with five bedrooms, an indoor swimming pool, and a home cinema. It’s unclear whether he took the house, though.

Wayne Rooney – $17.6 Million, Cheshire

As a player, Wayne Rooney has won everything there is to win, barring the World Cup. With five Premier League medals, one F.A. Cup medal, and one Uefa Champions League winner’s medal, he was also one of the best-paid players in the world at one point, with a weekly wage of £235 000.

So he could afford to splash $17.83 million on a mansion in Cheshire for him and his family to share. When he bought it, the house was also not far from teammates Robin Van Persie and Rio Ferdinand and includes a games room that includes video games, pinball machines, and a jukebox.

Harvey Barnes – Undisclosed Price, Leicester

With 25 appearances and 9 goals in the Premier League for the 2020/21 season, Harvey Barnes most definitely made a contribution to Leicesters City’s season that saw them just missing out on the top four and Champions League football. He has come into his own over the last two seasons and also broke into the national team.

While he doesn’t share much about his personal life, he did let the Leicester City club website into his home for an interview, revealing that he has a huge garden and a penchant for interior design. He is set to renegotiate his contract with Leicester as his current one up in June 2021.

Virgil Van Dijk – Price Undisclosed, Alderley Edge

Virgil Van Dijk is widely regarded as one of the best defenders in the world and made a mercurial rise from Groningen in the Netherlands to Liverpool and the top of the Premier League in the 2019/20 season. But he came to England via Southampton, and when he moved to Liverpool, he needed a place to stay.

He ended up renting from Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, whose Alderley Edge house is central to getting both to Liverpool’s and Manchester United’s training ground. Unfortunately for Virgil, he had to move out of the house with the 3.4 acres of luscious green grounds when Solskjaer got his current job.

Patrick Bamford – Price Undisclosed, Leeds

Patrick Bamford made quite a stir in the Premier League in the 2020/21 season and is being touted as a possible striker option for England in the upcoming Euro 2020 tournament, which was delayed to 2021. But like many young footballers in England, the media has had the chance to really delve into his life.

So there isn’t much info about his home and the standard of his house. He currently plays for Leed United and therefore lives in the city, and judging by some of the family photos, it looks like a modern and spacious house, which should have a decent yard for the dog in that picture too.
