Former Liverpool and England defender James Lee Duncan Carragher, widely known as Jamie Carragher, is reportedly facing a potential bankruptcy order due to an unpaid tax bill estimated at £700,000 to £800,000. According to documents obtained by the BBC, a bankruptcy petition was filed against Carragher by lawyers representing HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) on Wednesday.
While HMRC declined to provide further details about Carragher's specific case, they stated that bankruptcy proceedings are initiated as a final measure when addressing substantial unpaid tax debts. The tax authority has a cooperative stance towards individuals with tax obligations, offering alternative arrangements such as installment plans for those who cooperate.
Carragher's team has confirmed that they are actively working on resolving the issue, emphasizing that it is a private matter that should have been addressed earlier. They assured the BBC that the matter is expected to be settled promptly and will not escalate further. Carragher, who dedicated his entire professional career to Liverpool from 1996 to 2013, accrued over 700 appearances for the club.
Post-retirement, he has solidified his reputation as a respected football commentator, contributing to Sky Sports' Premier League broadcasts, Stick to Football, and CBS Sports' Champions League coverage.
