This presents as an adulterous plot starring Cesc Fabregas- the climax of it leaves Fabregas debited, the ex-husband debited, and of course, the 'missus' goes smiling to the bank! Read on:
A property tycoon who lost his glamorous wife to Manchester United target Cesc Fabregas, 25, has now lost the former family home too after a judge refused to halt its £5.475 million sale to the footballer.
Elie Taktouk, 38, whose former wife, Daniella Semaan, 38, gave birth to Fabregas' baby in April, tried to block the sale on the basis that the Barcelona star's offer was £2m less than its true value.
The Grade-II listed Belgravia flat, just yards from Buckingham Palace, had been ordered for sale as part of divorce proceedings, in order to provide money for Miss Semaan to buy her own home.
But in an 'extraordinary' twist, Mr Taktouk soon learned it was her new boyfriend, the multi-millionaire footballer, who had put an offer on the table within 3 weeks of the flat going on the market.
After the sale to Fabregas was approved by the High Court, Mr Taktouk launched a last-ditch bid for time to look for a bid closer to his £7.5m valuation of the apartment, where his ex was still living.

Property Tycoon, Elie Taktouk |
After the sale to Fabregas was approved by the High Court, Mr Taktouk launched a last-ditch bid for time to look for a bid closer to his £7.5m valuation of the apartment, where his ex was still living.
But after a Court of Appeal hearing, the footballer and his Lebanese girlfriend ran out winners when Lord Justice Floyd threw out Mr Taktouk's application to block the sale to the former Arsenal captain.
Mr Taktouk and his ex-wife married when they were 24 and living in Lebanon. They had two children before their separation in 2011, months after Miss Semaan was seen on holiday with the 25-year-old footballer.
The proceeds, with a top-up from Mr Taktouk, would provide her with the £1.4m needed to find a home of her own.
