It is no secret that they are top football players and millionaires. However, even for them, every euro is good, which can best be deduced from the crazy story of Aaron Ramsdale.
The Arsenal goalkeeper revealed to the British media how he managed to earn exactly 17 pounds during one game, which is somewhere around 20 euros.
It is not uncommon for goalkeepers to be the target of dissatisfied fans, and Ramsdale has felt that on his skin several times.
– During the warm-up, they often try to distract me, get me off track. And I’m just singing a Christmas carol. One fan wanted to confuse me by imitating a dog, but I remained calm in my head. At the end of the warm-up, I often shoot balls and that is my way of concentrating before the game.
The specific situation when he earned 20 euros happened during the match away to Leeds.
– After the first goal, they started throwing bottles, lighters, and similar things at me from the stands. I removed them all. The next thing I know is that coins have started flying in my direction. Somewhere half a pound, somewhere one, somewhere two. I picked some up and put them in a towel. When the referee played at the end of the first half, I took everything to the locker room and realized that I had collected about 17 pounds (20 euros).
Ramsdale points out that he could have “gotten rich” a little more if only he had more patience “
– At the same time, some coins fell out along the way, I didn’t even pick up some, so there would certainly be more of them – the Arsenal football player concluded.
Completely crazy story…
