Former Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur defender Sol Campbell would reportedly be putting up his lavish property on millionaire's Cheyne Walk on sale for a whopping 25 million pounds.

In 2008, the place underwent a renovation with Campbell's wife, Fiona Barrett-Campbell, designing the interior. An estate agency has put the pricey property up for sale for 25 million pounds as they describe it as a magnificent listing, The Daily Star reported.

 

The agency posted that the property has been redesigned and refurbished throughout internally and is ready for immediate occupation.

The agency has also advertised Campbell's house for renting through Knight Frank, but that won't come cheap either, as they have put it up for 15,000 pounds-a-week.
