Rafael Neto, 19, is a Portuguese athlete who has already represented Portugal in several European and world athletics competitions and is about to be sacked.
The Paralympic athlete, who was once world champion in the 100 and 200 meters, lives with his parents, Maria do Ceu and Fernando, and they were given one year to leave the house where they lived for about 14 years, a term that expires 28th of February. They have not yet found a solution and can be forced out, according to To express.
The landlady told them more than a year ago that she was going to list the apartment they live in for 220,000 euros, an amount the family can’t afford to avoid going out.
Thus, they have already applied for affordable rent programs, but the combined household income is too low to accept them.
Rafael was born with spina bifida. congenital anomaly of the nervous system that develops in the first two months of pregnancy and that, in the case of the athlete, leads to paralysis of the lower body, and therefore he always used a wheelchair.
