Footballers are known for their flamboyant and extravagant lifestyle and always don’t hesitate to enjoy the little time when it comesby considering their tight schedules. When it comes to alcohol consumption which is seen as a major mode of ‘socialization’ footballers are big consumers but there are some that have said NO to the trend.
Alcohol consumption is a major trend in this present society and it is one of the major substance that brings friends together for socialization purposes. It is invariably abnormal to have an event without alcoholic beverages for consumption.
This trend is not unfamiliar with footballers but these few have boldly come out to denounce the consumption of alcohol.
Let’s view their list below:
01. Gareth Bale
The Real Madrid once said: “I just don’t like drink, to be honest. it’s not the fact that I choose not to drink Alcohol. I just don’t like the taste of it. I ‘ve obviously tasted it, but I just don’t like it so it doesn’t do anything for me to be honest. In a way, it probably helps me though.”
02. Javier Hernandez
Javier’s grandfather, Tomas Balcazar once said that “Javier has his diet, he doesn’t eat just anything. He never drinks even a drop of alcohol. He doesn’t stay up late for any reason.” What a virtuous grandson, I must confess.
03. Djibril Cisse
The retired footballer turned DJ doesn’t drink alcohol too. That’s incredible right?
04. Frank Ribery
Ribery converted to Muslim in 2006 after getting married to a Muslim woman of Morrocan origin. And he once told his Bayern Munchen teammates to keep the alcohol, which is forbidden by his religion.
05. Darren Fletcher
The Scottish footballer who plays as a central midfielder and captains West Bromwich Albion and the Scotland national team is another lucky footballer to part the company with the beer.
06. Cristiano Ronaldo
This great footballer does not drink alcohol at all because his father died after years of alcohol abuse.
07. Harry Kane
“If I need to relax, I take my dogs out for a walk or I play round of golf. I can’t remember the last time I went to a club. Obviously, everyone is different but I love just settling down and having a barbecue with friends at my house,” said Kane.
08. Yaya Toure
Yaya Toure is a footballer who is also of a Muslim background. He once said: “Sorry I don’t drink because I’m Muslim.”
