Vieira had a trophy-laden playing career, starting with Cannes and moving on to AC Milan, Arsenal, Juventus, Inter Milan, and Manchester City.

The Frenchman’s most successful period was at Arsenal, where he won three Premier League titles and three FA Cups.

He also won 107 caps for France, including noteworthy victories in the 1998 World Cup and the 2000 European Championship.

Vieira has rarely utilized the seven-bedroom property as he currently resides in America as the mayor of New York City.
