Real Madrid legend Roberto Carlos, 51, 'is sleeping at the club's training ground as he divorces his wife and mother of two of his ELEVEN children amid bitter battle for £133m fortune'

Real Madrid icon Roberto Carlos is reportedly sleeping at the club's training ground after deciding to divorce his wife of over 15 years.

Carlos, 51, tied the knot with Mariana Lucon in June 2009, and the couple have two daughters together - Manuela and Mariana.

But they have now gone their separate ways, as reported by Estadio Deportivo.

According to the Spanish outlet, the divorce settlement is expected to be a complicated one due to Carlos' eye-watering fortune, which is valued at around €160m (£133m).

Lucon is reportedly continuing to live at their main residence, while Carlos' in-laws are currently in his second property, which has led to the former Brazilian full back temporarily moving into Madrid's training ground in Valdebebas.

Carlos spent 11 years at Madrid between 1996 and 2007, and won four LaLiga titles and three Champions League trophies during this period.

He is widely regarded as one of the best full backs in football history, and played alongside fellow 'Galacticos' such as David Beckham, Ronaldo and Luis Figo for the Spanish giants.

Now, he has returned to Madrid, where he remains a club ambassador, while he gets his personal life in order.

Carlos - who also won the World Cup with Brazil in 2002 - raised eyebrows a decade ago when he revealed in an interview that he has 11 children by seven different women.

His admission went viral on social media as he stated: 'Now I live with Manuela and I have several around. I have 7 in Brazil. I have one in Mexico, I have one in Hungary who lives in Alicante and the others live in Brazil.'

Three of his children are from his relationship with his first wife, Alexandra Pinheiro.

Mail Sport has contacted Carlos' representatives for comment.
