\n\tSouth Florida<\/a> has become a magnet for some of the biggest names in soccer, and now Brazilian legend Roberto Carlos is the latest superstar to grab a piece of the action\u2014two pieces, actually.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe former Real Madrid defender and Brazilian National Team icon recently acquired a pair of condos at\u00a0Viceroy Residences Fort Lauderdale<\/a>, according to the developer. The big buy comes as Carlos is working as an ambassador for the 2026 FIFA World Cup<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tCarlos, universally seen as one of the best left-backs to ever play the game, said he fell in love with the project immediately\u2014and with Fort Lauderdale<\/a> itself, which is a city he\u2019s been visiting for years. He\u2019s also joining a growing roster of soccer royalty who have planted multimillion-dollar real estate<\/a> roots in South Florida<\/a>, including\u00a0Lionel Messi<\/a>and\u00a0David Beckham<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cFort Lauderdale is a place I\u2019ve been coming to for years, and I\u2019ve always felt a strong connection to this city,\u201d Carlos said in a statement. \u201cWhen I saw Viceroy Residences Fort Lauderdale, I was drawn to the project right away. The design, energy and lifestyle all felt special. I knew immediately it would be the perfect fit for the way I want to experience South Florida.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe\u00a0New York Post\u00a0reported<\/a>\u00a0that Carlos spent around $5 million on the two condos, and he plans to help design the interiors both. One of the residences is a two-bedroom unit with about 1,350 square feet, while the other is a bit bigger, with three bedrooms in roughly 1,850 square feet. Both high-floor homes have private terraces and panoramic views that sweep across Fort Lauderdale, the Intracoastal Waterway, and the Atlantic Ocean.<\/p>\n

When completed, the project will have 251 condos ranging from one to four bedrooms, with interior design handled by the folks at Arquitectonica and Rockwell Group.<\/p>\n
