One of the wealthiest people under 30 in the UK was formerly a Swansea City ballboy who was kicked by Eden Hazard.
After taking a boot from Hazard in 2013, Charlie Morgan gained media attention.
When Morgan seemed to lie down on the ball during a League Cup semifinal match while serving as Swansea’s ball boy, the then-Chelsea star reacted by kicking out at Morgan in an effort to regain possession of the ball.
His contributions aided the Swans, who defeated the Blues 5-0 to win the competition and take a 2-0 aggregate lead over them.
After more than ten years, Morgan has established himself as a household name. He is one of the co-owners of AU Vodka, a high-end vodka brand that is frequently seen at upscale pubs and nightclubs.
AU Vodka has partnered with some of the most well-known people in the world, including Jake Paul, who paid £206,000 to get a tattoo of the blue raspberry bottle, former footballer Ronaldinho, and boxing legend Floyd Mayweather.
With a staggering net worth of £55 million, Morgan is now the 27th richest person in the UK under the age of 35.
The other athletes on the list are Rory McIlroy (£200 million), Anthony Joshua (£150 million), Gareth Bale (£70 million), Raheem Sterling (£61 million), Harry Kane (£51 million), and Raheem Sterling (£61 million).
