Spanish football star wins lottery in Qatar

Xavi - The famous Spanish player won a large sum of money thanks to saving in a bank.

The Al Dana lottery was organized by Doha Bank, Qatar for savings customers. The prize for Xavi was one million riyals (Qatari currency), equivalent to about 270,000 dollars.

"I didn't expect to win. I opened an account at Doha Bank last December. I was also interested in the Al Dana lottery program after hearing the bank encouraged customers to deposit money for a chance to become a millionaire," Xavi said on August 29.
