Bankrupt Wes Brown smiles as tailor jokes ex-£50k-a-week Man Utd star is ‘so washed up he can’t afford a suit’
FORMER Manchester United legend Wes Brown was bizarrely mocked by a tailor as he went to buy a suit.
The 44-year-old retired defender was reportedly declared bankrupt in April.
Brown is currently in Hong Kong and made a visit to Sam’s Tailor, who has 1.8million followers on TikTok.
The ex-England star is seen in the clip wearing a tattered blue suit that is missing an arm.
Brown is introduced by shop owner and internet sensation Roshan Melwani as a Man Utd hero.
But he then begins roasting the ex-£50,000-a-week player.
Melwani joked: “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.
“No buttons, no stitches. Just tacked together with a pin.”
Melwani then rips the suit off Brown and continues: “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 then smiles at the camera and poses with his thumb up.
Fans were left baffled by the video, one said: “Bit random.”
Another added: “Hold up a minute, no violating Wes Brown for the views.”
More reacted: “The link up nobody asked for but everyone needed.”
To all the comments that expressed confusion about the tailor’s work, he simply replied: “It’s part of the service.”
How Brown went from riches to rags
WES BROWN went bankrupt over a huge debt to the taxman and a car company.
He supposedly lost millions in failed property ventures and slipped into a six-figure debt.
Two creditors lobbied for the ex-footballer to be made bankrupt.
Brown was paid £50,000-a-week during his best days at Man Utd, living the life of luxury.
He was married to Leanne from Real Housewives of Cheshire – but divorced in 2021 – and they have three kids together.
Their separation was reportedly costly and he lost millions buying a farm that his ex-wife now lives on as well as another house.
Brown now lives in a “modest pad” owned by Marcus Rashford, who is offering him a “mate’s rates” deal.
Brown is currently involved with Man Utd, regularly featuring as a pundit on channel MUTV.
He also works with club sponsors Marriott, being part of fans’ VIP experience at Old Trafford in the “Seat of Dreams”.
