The name Faiq Bolkian may not mean much to Portuguese fans, but Marítimo’s new reinforcement is the richest player in the world, with a heritage that far exceeds that of world soccer stars such as Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.
Nephew of Hassanal Bolkiah, Sultan of Brunei, and son of Jefri Bolkiah, prince of this Asian state, the end of 22 years, has an estimated assets of more than 17,000 million euros, according to an investigation carried out by the English press.
Faiq Bolkian was born in the United States of America, in the city of Los Angeles, but it was in England that he grew up and joined the ranks of clubs such as Southampton, Arsenal, Chelsea, Stoke City and Leicester. Despite having American nationality, it was with the Brunei team that he became international, having played six official matches and scored one goal.
In Marítimo he saw the opportunity to relaunch his career. “I am very happy to be here and to have made this decision. I am sure that this is the right club for me and for my career. My goal is to always give my best in each training session and in each game, to evolve and help the team. team in whatever is necessary, “said the player in statements to the official website of the Madeiran emblem.
However, it is not because of his football skills that the forward has caused a sensation. It is more the eccentricities of him and his family that delight the international press, such as the time he spent more than 35 million euros in a month buying cars, watches and jewelry, or the tiger that they have as a pet.
