Champions League winner looks totally unrecognisable 23-years on from winning trophy after ripped body transformation

THIS former Bayern Munich and Real Madrid ace looks amazing for 47.

Back in 1998, the ex-Brazilian international was a Champions League winner with Los Blancos.


But can you guess who it is?

It is, of course, ex-midfielder Ze Roberto who enjoyed a stellar career as a player.

However, he never looked this buff and has clearly been working out religiously since retiring from the game in 2017.

Last year, he stunned fans on social media when he showed off his hench body transformation akin to a bodybuilder.

The Samba star uploaded an Instagram video of himself during a training session in the park during the coronavirus lockdown.

Now a personal trainer, he gave an insight into how he was able to outlast so many of his former teammates.

He told local media in the past: "I have no vices. I don’t drink alcoholic beverages, I don’t smoke, I eat very well, I sleep well.

"I have my family, which is my greatest security. I think those are important factors to reach the age I reached and still continue playing at a high level."

During his illustrious playing, Ze Roberto won two Copa Americas and finished runner up at the 1998 World Cup.

The some time wing-back made 85 Brazil appearances and scored six times for his country.

Ze Roberto also lifted LaLiga and the Champions League with Real Madrid and claimed four Bundesliga titles in six years at Bayern Munich over two stints.

Most recently, he claimed he has a better physique than Cristiano Ronaldo.
