Watch ... when Adriano was close to tearing up Real Madrid

In his football career, Brazilian Adriano was one of the best strikers in the world, before the world of drugs, weapons and crime swept him to and around ending his football life and even his personal life.

This is what the player Zlatan Ibrahimovic - who played with Adriano at Inter Milan - described as the most talented player. He added that Adriano was "deadly in front of the goal and fast, and his missiles were fired, and no one can grab the ball when it is in his possession."

Words summarized the level of the former Brazilian international who spent six years with "Nerazzurri" in two stages, and football fans still remember the direct free kick that almost tore the Spanish goalkeeper Iker Casillas into Real Madrid's goal in a friendly match at the "Santiago Bernabeu" stadium in 2001.

It is noteworthy that Inter Milan contracted with Adriano in 2001 and stayed in his ranks for one year, before he loaned to Parma, who scored 23 goals in 37 games, which precipitated his return to "San Siro".

Adriano also scored 27 goals in 48 games for his country, but the tragic killing of his father completely changed the life of the former star, so he addicted drugs, alcohol and nightlife.

It ended up engaging in a dangerous gang that professionalizes murder and drug trafficking and engages in confrontations with official security forces.

Several pictures of him carrying weapons were posted on his websites, but his latest photos on his Instagram account show that he is beginning to restore his normal life with his family.
