He won a World Cup, Real Madrid kicked him out and now he sells clothing

Some footballers finish their professional careers and continue linked to soccer as coaches, managers, agents or commentators in the media. However, others, whether by choice or necessity, follow a very different path.

This is the case of this Spanish player who shone for more than 15 years as one of the main stars of Real Madrid, where he won 5 leagues and 3 Champions League titles. In addition, he was a key player of the Spanish National Team that in just four years won two Euro Cups and a World Cup.

All this earned him the recognition of his colleagues and the public, being considered one of the best players in the world in his position. Nevertheless, after a drop in his performances, Los Merengues decided to let him go and he finished his career playing for 5 years in Porto. There he returned to his best level and help the side to win the Portuguese League twice, being voted the best goalkeeper in the league in the 2018/19 season.

A new life after soccer

The protagonist of the story is Iker Casillas, the former goalkeeper who at 42 years of age no longer plays soccer, but runs several companies related to real estate, advertising and clothing sales. The latter is the brand 1K, which manufactures clothing for men, women and children, as well as sunglasses.
