[SPORTS News] Ex- Real Madrid star, Royston Drenthe joins his 12th club a month after being declared bankrupt having lost £3.2m fortune to failed music and acting career

Royston Drenthe has joined the 12th club of his career after being unveiled by Spanish minnows Racing Murcia a month after being declared bankrupt having lost £3.2m fortune to failed music and acting career.

 

The former Real Madrid and Everton winger was unveiled on Thursday after making the shock move to the Spanish lower leagues.

 

 

The 33-year-old’s move from Dutch second division side Kozakken Boys to the third division in Spain comes just a month after he was declared bankrupt by a court in Holland.

 

Drenthe spoke to Dutch site voetbalzone following the court verdict, saying the decision will not be final as he explained at that time that his lawyer was on holiday when the verdict was handed down.

 

‘I don’t know the ins and outs and I don’t know exactly what’s going on, but if this is what I think it is, it’s not that important,’ he told the website.

 

‘I’m always under a magnifying glass, but it will be resolved as it should.’

 

Drenthe previously stated that he last lost £3.2million earned from what looked like a promising football career before pursuing a career in music. He also attempted to break into acting, appearing in the TV crime drama Mocro Maffia
