Sanctioned oligarch Alisher Usmanov owns a £455million super yacht with a £30m gold staircase and its own football lounge.
Usmanov, whose net worth stands at a mind-boggling £9.8billion, was sanctioned by the UK government seven days after Russia invaded Ukraine. His assets were frozen and he was banned from visiting the country.
The metals magnate previously sponsored Everton through his company USM - a link that was terminated following the invasion of Ukraine. He also owned shares in Arsenal between 2007 and 2018 before selling them to the club's majority owner Stan Kroenke.
As well as his love of football, Uzbek-born Usmanov also enjoys the finer things in life, not least his £455million super yacht complete with all the trappings you might expect from a man with too much money.
The boat, which is currently moored in the German city of Hamburg, boasts a 30m indoor pool, surrounded by blue crystals and palatial columns. Usmanov evidently has a love of gold because inside one of the bedrooms, all the fixtures and fittings - including even the toilet seat - are made out of the precious metal.
Gold isn't the only thing Usmanov loves. If it wasn't clear by now, he enjoys the beautiful game too. No surprise then that he has a "football lounge" to be able to watch football no matter where he is in the world.
Despite the sanctions levelled against Usmanov in the UK, the super yacht Dilbar, which stretches 516ft, has yet to be impounded. German authorities have revealed they have not seized the floating mansion as its ownership has yet to be "clearly clarified."
Officials now face a race against the clock to prove its links to Usmanov before it is allowed to leave port. Usmanov has reportedly already avoided some of the sanctions by moving billions of pounds worth of assets into other people's names - including the yacht.

A source told The Sun of his boat: "The vessel itself is the largest in the world by volume. They have one of the biggest swimming pools on a yacht. There is an enormous spa area.
"There are saunas, steam rooms, relaxing rooms, massage rooms, hair salon, and a nail salon. He also has a room he calls the football lounge and he would go to watch football in there every few days."
Usmanov has made no secret of his ties to Vladimir Putin in the past, saying in 2010: "I am proud that I know Putin, and the fact that everybody does not like him is not Putin's problem."
