Total investment in the Chinese Super League has fallen sharply in recent years, but playing in Chinese Super League clubs is still a well-paying job, with many players earning far more salaries in the Super League than other leagues. For example, Karanga, the star goalscorer of the Henan team, has an annual salary of nearly 10 million yuan after tax. However, surprisingly, according to recent news from Brazilian media, although Karanga has a good income in China, he is unwilling to pay child support for his children in Brazil, which is shocking.
Recently, 32-year-old Karanga was arrested in Brazil on suspicion of domestic violence against his current girlfriend and faces trial from the local women's rights protection court. According to previous reports in Brazilian media, when the police arrested Karanga, they also found another court arrest warrant from him, but the specific content of this arrest warrant was not disclosed at the time. However, according to the latest information from the Brazilian media "Varginha", the arrest warrant on Kalanga was actually issued by the court of the Brazilian state of Minas Gerais, because Karanga has been in arrears with the maintenance of his minor children living there, because the court requires him to be tried.
It turned out that Karanga had more than one marriage experience before he became his current girlfriend, and also left children. Despite the divorce, Karanga, as the father of the child, still needs to pay alimony. It's just that for some reason, Karanga has always refused to pay this fee.
From the perspective of income, Karanga's annual salary in Henan team is at least 1.2 million euros after tax, equivalent to more than 9.2 million yuan, plus various game goal bonuses, earning tens of millions a year is not a problem, such income is rich even in Brazil, so there is basically no possibility of financial constraints, but Karanga is unwilling to pay even child support, which is indeed incomprehensible.
For Henan, the question now is, when will Karanga return? During the league break this year, Karanga stayed in Brazil and did not return, and although the Henan team repeatedly urged, the players did not return. Now that Karanga is in trouble in Brazil, the timing of his return to the team is unknown. Whether Henan can count on the powerful goalscorer this season, the outlook may not be too optimistic.
