Saturday, January 11, 2025 - Former Arsenal and Mexican striker, Carlos Vela has become the latest footballer to lose his home in the devastating wildfires ripping through Los Angeles.

Vela, who plays for MLS side LA FC since his arrival
in 2018, showed off the families lavish home in a Christmas Instagram post

have killed at least ten people, destroyed thousands of homes, and forced over
130,000 residents to evacuate.
