Renato Gaúcho: The Wilt Chamberlain of Brazilian soccer

Remember when Wilt Chamberlain wrote that he had been with 25,000 women and how it just seemed mathematically impossible, but heck, it was Wilt Chamberlain so maybe he was telling what he believed to be true?

Well, in Brazil, they’ve recently uncovered their own Wilt the Stilt in Fluminese coach Renato Gaúcho, who in a recent interview let it be known that he had slept with 5,000 women.

“I am the true phenomenon,” said Gaúcho.

Gaúcho, whose career as a player was highlighted by more than 40 appearance with the Brazilian National Team, while his coaching career has brought him a Brazil Cup title, has said that he’s managed to sleep that number of women even while being married for 15 years. Gaúcho also admitted to having had sex with numerous Brazilian stars, including model and Carnival legend Luma de Oliveira.

Sadly for Gaúcho, the Brazilian media isn’t really buying it, pointing out that to achieve such a number, Gaúcho would have had to have slept with three different women every week of the year every year since he was 13. And despite his charisma and charms, most find that dubious. Not that it matters to Gaúcho, of course, who, even by Brazilian standards has a ridiculously high opinion of himself.
