The sport of the opportunity for young people to move forward, a child of low resources for any country in the world as these footballers to worship, earn millions of dollars for doing something unpublished, play.

This is why many great players come from below and thrive on commitment and practice hours to improve their game with the hope of moving forward, doing what they like best.

Today's case is of Faiq Bolkiah with 19 years old is a player of the American nationality and Brunei is today the richest player in the world, because he belongs to the royal family, his father is brother of the Sultan of Brunei, a Asian country with a little more than 400,000 inhabitants and of which most live in extreme poverty.

The family fortune is estimated at 20,000 million dollars and has the largest palace in the world, Faiq came to spend 35 million dollars in a month buying jewelry and luxury cars, but for now is not successful in a good player, has had passing by academies of great clubs of England, Southampton, Arsenal and Chelsea have been his last clubs with which he has not been able to make his debut. His current club is the Leicester F.C.

His time in so many academies at such a young age, since he is not a super talent, watching some videos on YouTube of this guy, he can share my idea, but if hard work can become a team or buy it and make it debut hehehe
