The Brazilian was once touted to be the next big thing in world football after his sumptuous displays for Porto. However, two wrong moves later, he definitely competes in the short list of players titled ‘What if’.

In 2012, Hulk swapped the rigors of a top European club for the money Russia offered and by the time he was done at Zenit, he simply had to move to China.

Blessed with arguably the most powerful left foot since a certain Roberto Carlos, it was just a shame that he couldn’t showcase his talents on a bigger European stage.

Yet, while we can go on and on about his decisions, there is no denying that he has been enjoying his time in China. After all, a tidy salary of £320,000 per week helps you buy most things you desire.
