Victor Osimhen, one of Africa’s brightest football stars, recently opened up about his approach to life after football.

He said, “Football money is temporary. I already own 2 estates, and that’s what I will fall back on when I retire.”

It's a good thing he realizes this and is already planning and investing in his future after retirement...


Pls advise your name... the other victor oh!

Abeg own ooooo. Yekini don use cement do fancy road finish. House came be like vacation visa.

Wise boy. Nothing beats having an investment to fall back on in your retirement.

That Yekini's own was painful.

After suffering several isolation the National team, and he still went ahead to be successful.

It was sad to see him end his career and life the way it ended.

Football money is Temporal but the cashout dae long pas ritual money na why you should consider it a Business.

Its not about playing for the biggest team and making a name its all about highest bidder.

Most players discovered this after making name that's why they rushed to china and arab emirates to play and make billions of naira.

Oscar the young Brazilian discovered this as well

Also footballs is very age sensitive once you approach 30 you are no longer rated.

So at your 20-27 play for top teams make the nameby 28-35 go for the emirates or chinese team and cash out.

Football money is temporal but the money dae long


As you dae plan so no go marry one oyimbo woman oh.. no allow white woman fall in love with you , those creatures have destroyed alot of footballers , dem dae clear all the achievement and investment of most footballers.

As you dae plan so avoid white woman., Marry anything outside white woman even if you wan marry, ensure na prenup.

Those women no dae carry clear eyes enter marriage oh..na business dem dae so..

Divorce and cashout

COMRADES, past football players were the ones who used to spend their money recklessly, these days the narrative has changed
Messi is an investor
Ronaldo is an investor
Neymar is an investor
Osimen too is an investor

Correct guy. Invest wisely as my g will say. ( Deskstalker)

Victor Osimhen the Edo trusted and tested.

As a sure boi nau... after all the suffer wey him don suffer for life make he no come invest? if he no get sense to invest early then na him village people win so.

OGA, go into manufacturing sector. Akanbi land too dey import🤷🏿.

Owning 2 estates is good, but not the best approach. Too much concentration of risk.

If he owns 2 estates, that suggest he's probably letting them out. The wear and tear on rented properties in Nigeria can badly reduce the value of the properties in the long run. What looks like a shiny modern estate today, can become a run down and highly devalued estate in 15 years time.

Also, owning an entire estates of rented properties will not do much for the value of each property in the long run. The houses may become difficult to sell individually in the future.

Concentrating ownership in such a way is also risky. Just one unfortunate incident can tarnish the reputation of an entire estate and undermine the value of the properties.

A better bet will be to spread the risk by buying properties in multiple upmarket and middle class locations. That way, he is spreading risk.

Pls advise your name... the other victor oh!

how Una dey reason victor boniface? Is it because he jokes alot?

That guy is fvcking wise, make Una fear that guy.

No be everything them dey talk for internet.

Second career will start when he retires. He should take advantage of his stay in Europe to start learning languages.

Football can make you an
1. Analyst
2. A commentator
3. A coach
4. A scout
5. A columnist or pundit. This is quite different from no 1

You can also play part in
6. Club Executive Roles (sporting director, admin)
7. Sports Science/Physiotherapy
8. Personal Training/Fitness Expert
9. Running football academies
10. Football administration at national or sporting level
11. Learn languages to expand global influence and deals
12. Understand contracts, image rights, and negotiations. They may go to school to learn more about the business. School is not scam, na backroom money de
13. Own or invest in a football club

I know say na branding go come to mind easily but you must plan it well so you can turn it into more money after you retire but companies will only work with a brand that is guided...


Cesc Fàbregas invested in Como 1907, learned multiple languages, used his connections from FC Barcelona and Arsenal FC, and transitioned directly into coaching.
He didn’t wait, he started coaching at Como soon after joining. Today he is touted as one of the possible future coaches of Spain. When he de play, he de read book de invest for himself to get licence and understand business. Henry and Messi are doing things like this too. They are not just playing for clubs, they own them too. Messi has 35% ownership stake in Inter Miami. You must play football with sense. School no be scam but try to de take advice from elders.

You are beginning to talk too much. What's our concern with your estates? Are you going to sell any shares to us?

Good development. Having ur estate in Lagos is one of the best investment.

Estatete in nigeria is not an investment ohhhh, especially in lagos, because one day the government may demolish all the estate citing it's wrong plan, or they want to use there land

he married a foreign woman so danger still dey front

Forget ooo temporary kor give me oshimen one week salary am made for life

Good for you.
Please consider investment in football academy too

Smart boy, go and built hotel in Delta and Edo. Leave Lagos ooo. Make them no use jealousy demolish them.

Diversify Boy! You have to plan your retirement right now ... You need to configure your rich lifestyle right now and that involves your living expenses coming from interest earned,no matter how large on invested funds mutuals/tbills/bonds ... Safe wealth builders and compound... Easy peasy ...

The best investment is back into the game. That is what you know. You don't need advisers, you don't need secretaries or book keepers. And there is a ton of things you can invest in, in sports or football for that matter from investing in yourself to run the game from the touchline to investing in others through player or club ownership/management.

You earn in forex and invest to yield in naira. That will be a cultural shock to your financial system when the time comes.

Lol you think na Edo house he go dey use as retirement plan? How much will it appreciate?

Oshimen could be Edo guy but he’s purely thinking Yoruba. He will be more safe in Lagos than any other state.

Young landlord wise cock

He should take Home Schooling, while still playing foottball.
KNOWLEDGE,, is POWER!

Study to become a Coach in future.
Study to own a viable Business
Study to ensure your Accountant is not duping you.
Study to ensure one woman will not open Nyansh for you small, and clean you out in a Divorce, because unlike our Mothers, they are all Winch, nowadays.
Study to understand how money works, so it can work for you.
Most all, take care of your Health, without good Health (which most footballers suffer, after 50yrs, due to the heavy pressure they have put on their bodies, while playing) .. everything is just enjoyment for those who did not work for it.

I like you, Boy but please, take it easy, talk less, cool your temper and let your performance do the talking.
Ciao
