At a height of 120 meters, a young French football star stood on the edge of the Menan Bridge in the charming city of Nice, and thought carefully about throwing himself and committing suicide.
This story is about the rising French player Alexis Pica Pica, a player for the French club Nice, who was on the verge of suicide a few days ago, due to “emotional problems” and “abandoning a girl.”
Becca’s story once again shed light on a sensitive aspect of the lives of football players, which is the aspect of emotional life, which destroyed the careers of many stars, and kept them away from what “could have been.”
We list 12 stories of stars whose emotional relationships severely affected their careers, and led them into the corridors of regret:

The most prominent story is of the Argentine striker Mauro Icardi, who betrayed his friend, the player Maxi Lopez, and “kidnapped his wife from him.”
Icardi decided to marry Wanda Nara, the controversial Argentine model, who was the wife of Maxi, Icardi’s friend and “mentor”.
Icardi’s relationship completely distorted his image, and kept him away from the Argentine national team, even at the height of his brilliance, when the “Tango National Team” needed a brilliant goalscorer like him.

Karim Benzema has a busy career with Real Madrid, studded with gold and diamonds, but his association with an emotional scandal made him an outcast in the France national team.
Benzema was involved in a case of “blackmailing” his French teammate Mathieu Valbuena, who was photographed having a relationship with a minor. The owners of the video were young men linked to Benzema, who participated in the blackmail negotiations.
Benzema’s involvement in Valbuena’s emotional affair kept him away from the French national team, until he lost the chance to win the 2018 World Cup title, and he watched the roosters raise the cup from inside the house.

Shakira’s betrayal has a price
Barcelona star Gerard Pique’s betrayal of Colombian star Shakira put him in the “bad” category and erased the memories of his brilliance at the Camp Nou.

Two stars struggle over a girl
One of the famous emotional scandals is the one that brought together Belgium national team star Kevin De Bruyne and his fellow goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois.
The latter betrayed his friend and colleague, and established a relationship with De Bruyne’s girlfriend, which ignited a major dispute within the young team. Kevin De Bruyne forgave Courtois for his betrayal, but fans still see Courtois in a negative light because of that story.
A scandal that cost him dearly
England national team captain, John Terry, entered into a “fierce war” with the English media, after reports that he had an affair with the ex-wife of his club and country teammate, Wayne Bridge.

Severe depression after discovering betrayal
Slovenian Josip Ilicic was one of the most prominent players in the Italian League during the Corona pandemic period, and he succeeded, led by his club Atalanta, in reaching the advanced stages of the Champions League.

The end of the golden boy
The transfer of Ukrainian star Andriy Shevchenko from AC Milan to Chelsea represented the “real end of the player.” The best player in the world did not adapt in England, and has not returned to his usual level since that day.
The reason for the move was his wife, an American model, who wanted to raise her children in an English-speaking country, so the move came to Chelsea.
Error statements
The Ukrainian defender was a favorite of coach Pep Guardiola, until his girlfriend criticized the giant coach in a post on social media.
Zinchenko’s girlfriend described Guardiola as “too philosophical in tactics.”
Since that day, Zinchenko no longer had a place at Manchester City, and was released to rivals Arsenal, where his level clearly declined.
Racism led to the end
An unknown Serbian player, named Aleksandar Katai, completely ended his career while he was a player with Los Angeles Galaxy.
The reason was his wife’s criticism of the massive American demonstrations with George Floyd, the black man who was killed for racist reasons against black people.
The player’s contract was terminated immediately after his wife’s “racist” statements.
