Di Marzio reported that former Lazio Brazilian full-back Vinicius Freitas chose to retire early at the age of 31 and successfully transformed into a wealth consultant. In an exclusive interview, he shared his unique journey from the football field to the financial world, and revealed that his new mission is to help other football players avoid financial difficulties after retirement.

Freitas revealed that continued injuries and his "either 100% commitment or give up" character were the main reasons for his decision to retire. After being injured again in his first start with Serie D side Francavilla, he made up his mind to hang up his boots.

Today, he is working in a top investment company in Brazil and has obtained a professional certificate for this purpose. He said that his motivation stemmed from his personal experience as a player: "According to statistics, many Brazilian athletes will lose everything after five years of retirement. If I didn't have my brother (help), this kind of thing might also happen to me."

Looking back on his career in Europe, Freitas has deep feelings for Italy, calling it his "second home." He shared anecdotes about his brotherhood with Felipe Anderson during his time at Lazio and about buying Hernanes' second-hand car.

He also particularly praised Inzaghi Jr., praising him as a coach who "can control the locker room" and can "speak the same language" with the players. He has long foreseen his success. Although never being able to play in Serie A is his biggest "regret", he emphasized that "Roma changed my life" and planned to return to Italy as an entrepreneur in the future.
