Ex-Arsenal Player, Emmanuel Eboue Offered Job By Galatasaray After Sharing Heart-breaking Riches To Rags Story

Turkish club, Galatasary has offered his former player, Emmanuel Eboue a coaching role.

Eboue recently revealed that he was left with nothing after a bitter divorce battle with his wife Aurelie.

The former defender said he sleeps on the floor of a friend’s home, travels by bus and even cleans his clothes by hand because he can’t afford a washing machine.

After learning of his plight, the 34-year-old was handed a lifeline by the manager of one of his former clubs.

 

“We heard news about Eboue in the dressing room. I was informed there, we will do whatever we can to help my friend,” Galatasaray boss Faith Terin told CNN.

Eboue, who played for Arsenal for seven years between 2004 and 2011, and the Turkish side from 2011 and 2016, had said he was seeking divine intervention to prevent him from taking his own life.

“I want God to help me,” Eboue had said. “Only he can help take these thoughts from my mind.”

As part of his divorce settlement, Eboue has been ordered to also give up his house in London to his ex-wife.
