Ex-Man Utd star Wes Brown went bankrupt after losing millions in car debt and property deals

Former Manchester United defender Wes Brown lost millions of pounds in failed property deals and also racked up car debt, it has been revealed.

The Mirror detailed earlier this week how Brown, who used to earn around £50,000-a-week during his Old Trafford days, had been the subject of a bankruptcy petition from HMRC. The order was published this week in The Gazette after being approved by the High Court on April 12.

And now fresh details have emerged, shedding light on how the multi-time Premier League winner was declared bankrupt after falling into six-figure debt with the HRMC and falling behind on car payments to a finance company.
