Former Manchester United defender Wes Brown starred in a bizarre video on social media where a tailor joked he 'can't afford a suit'.
Brown, who was declared bankrupt in April 2023, appeared in the video after making a visit to Sam's Tailor in Hong Kong.
During that trip, the former defender was filmed in a seemingly tattered blue suit, alongside joint owner Roshan Melwani in a video on TikTok.
Melwani introduced Brown as a 'Manchester United legend' before going on to claim the ex-England international has 'nothing left in the tank'.
He said: 'The problem with ex-footballers is that they're so washed up, they can't even afford a suit! They can afford a partial suit'.
Brown grinned alongside Melwani and interjected: 'It's a new style'.
Melwani continued: 'No buttons, no stitches. Just tacked together with a pin!' before removing the jacket from Brown.
He then said: 'But if I strip the old journeyman down - journeyman, haha - you'll see nothing inside. Just like nothing's left inside Wes' tank! Are you happy?'
Brown smiles again and holds a thumbs up to the camera as they pose for the final shot of the video.
Some fans were left confused and questioned, in the comments, the TikTok page was 'violating Brown for views'.
The page responded: 'It's part of the service'.
Last year, HMRC filed a bankruptcy petition against Brown, who reportedly earned £50,000-a-week during his playing days at Old Trafford, on February 27.
The petition was rubber-stamped at the High Court on April 12 and listed on The Gazette, the official public record.
Defender Brown, 43, was in United's first team for 15 years having come through the Old Trafford club's academy ranks.
He made 362 appearances for the club, winning five Premier League titles, two FA Cup, two League Cups and two Champions Leagues during an illustrious career.
Brown was capped 23 times for England and also played for Sunderland and Blackburn Rovers after he left United in 2011.
In 2022 it was reported Brown split from his wife Leanne, 46, who appeared in the reality TV show Real Housewives of Cheshire. They married in 2009 and had three daughters together.
Wes reportedly moved out of the home he shared with Leanne and their children Halle, Lilia, and Lola.
A source told The Sun at the time: 'Wes and Leanne split before Christmas [2021]. There were no third parties involved; it is just a sad fact that their marriage has run its course'.
