After Nottingham Forest’s 2-2 draw with Leicester City on Sunday, billionaire owner of Nottingham Forest Fc, Evangelos Marinakis was spotted chatting with manager Nuno Espírito Santo on the field. But what caught fans' attention — it was his phone. Marinakis appeared to be holding an old iPhone 6 Plus or 7 Plus, sparking reactions online. Many were shocked that someone of his wealth was still using a phone most people, even those far less rich, have long abandoned. Some called it humble, others found it surprising — but one thing's clear: it got fans talking.

It’s only in Africa, they regard people with Iphone and car key as big. Thats why you see Nigerians abroad, naa Benz. Even Oyinbo wey create Benz, no use benz reach Blacks |

Na only his iPhone caught you? Look at his simple dressing as well. Na only Africans dey show off |

Does using iPhone make someone a big person? |

You are the one putting value on material things. I want to talk, I need a phone. Hello. Hi. I want to text. Send message. If it can do all these, the others are other people's headache. Imagine if you left your phone at home, will your worth decrease?

This is a man that doesn't want to use his money and buy problems. I noticed is even a wired headphone and not iPod . It's just simplicity. I don't like iPhones too . And I can't use it . If I'm given I'll sell it to those that valued it . All I need is an android that's fast with high ROM and RAM . I don't even care about camera |

Not like in our country when with little or slightest opportunities, the next thing is a form of display of weath that are vanity.. This is white not black., let it sink. ![]() |

That doesn't mean he doesn't have other gadgets somewhere in his car and at home |

Nigeria mentality is that anyone using iPhone or Samsung is referred to as a millionaire while an android user is known as average man |

ArcFresky:Stop this inferiority complex narratives. Ostentatious living knows no skin colour. The very people who invented class commodities and superiority standards are the Whites. Let's stop this "oyibo that Nigeria this" narrative. It's slavish! |

It's his facial expression that got me. It's like the match cut Baba ticket cos he was clearly on PARA MODE. I wonder what he would have done to MARESCA if he was his employer. Dude would have had Maresca assassinated. ![]() |

There is no big deal to that When you get older you need glasses often . Not everyone likes to use glasses and so many people do not use their phones for anything other than calls and texts. That means not even an Iphone but a feature phone with no internet functionality also for those who don't want to be tracked that is a bonus They browse with a tablet or a laptop. Also not everyone is on social media, So it al comes down to NEED. He does not NEED a more expensive phone He would buy one if he did At his age have you seen any pictures of Donald Trump wearing glasses? That does not mean he does not use them . He just does not want to be seen wearing them in public |

RealityKings1:But you and I know that if it was niaja breed,he will pack all the gadgets in his car,to show people that he has money.. You will see someone holding purse or bag with some mint naira notes at his back. some now use hard currencies,since EFCC started inviting them over naira mutilation. ![]() You will now see mopol and those bouncers around him..

ArcFresky:Overseas, it's also a status symbol. That's why many people upgrade. IPhone 8 is still good enough. One is just buying the hype, and not a phone. |

ArcFresky:You lied, it's even the benz they stop using Blacks here buy. They love luxury things too. You think it's us luxurious brands have in mind to go on production spree? Stop playing o. |

Some people are so poor, all they have is money. |

Don’t be deceived by their dressing and phones, thinking they’re very simple bla bla bla. To be around their circle is very expensive… If they’re very simple, you won’t find them flying private jets, first class and business class If they’re as simple as they make you think, at events they’ll sit with regular people If they’re as simple as they make you think, they’ll not be accumulating and tripling their wealth. Don’t be deceived by looks ![]() |

omonnakoda:pls if I might u right, does it mean iPhones can not be tracked? |

Chasito:If I may go back to the sentence where you saw the word TRACKED Read it again Slowly. Try to comprehend I assume you know what a feature phone is Best Wishes |
