Inside wild sex life of Brazil legend Romario - football's greatest 'top sh****r'
Posted Monday, January 30, 2023 by Dailystar.co.uk
Sex and football went hand in hand for Brazil legend Romario, who would score in the bedroom just as often as he'd find the back of the net during his career - and he hasn't let up since

Brazil legend Romario was as prolific a striker as they come - and his scoring stretched beyond the back of the net.
The former Barcelona striker, who ranks as the seventh-highest goalscorer in the history of football with 780 strikes, fuelled his lethal touch on the pitch with a lifestyle centred around sex.
His former team-mate at the Camp Nou, Hristo Stoichkov, once told FourFourTwo: "Romario was only interested in two things: football and f***ing. Romario’s lifestyle, his constant coming and going caused problems with his wife."
The man himself made no bones about his active love life. Writing for The Players' Tribune last year, he explained: "Sex, for me, has always been f***ing good.
“Sometimes on match day I would stay at home, away from the rest of the team. If I’d wake up horny, I’d have sex with my wife and then go to the game.
“On the pitch, it made me feel calmer and lighter.”

Romario, who turns 57 today (January 29), split with his first wife Monica Santoro in 1995 after his relentless romping also saw his Barca career derail.
Naturally, it didn't take him long to find second wife Danielle Favatto, who he stayed married to for five years - although he still didn't remain loyal.

His old Brazil colleague Ronaldo told Sport in 2011: "In 1997, during Copa America, Romario convinced me to escape with him from the hotel.
"Romario was the first to climb over the wall and soon after I came in. Meanwhile, on the other side of the street, there was a taxi waiting for us and we spent our nights in good company.

"It was all handled very intricately, but I cannot give any more details." He then spent a decade with third wife Isabelle Bittencourt before their 2014 split.
Since then, he's been romantically linked to Dixie Pratt, who was 29 years his junior and a teenager at the time, Ana Karoline Nazario, a student who was 31 years younger than him, and most recently the 25-years younger Marcelle Ceolin.

Even though his rampant ways haven't found him a secure relationship, Romario has continued to advise others to follow the same policy.
Ahead of the 2018 World Cup, he told Gabriel Jesus: "Have enough sex is one piece of advice - as is making the most you can of your days off. And, of course, you must concentrate on match days and during the games."
