A Playboy model has claimed she has raised $8million from her OnlyFans page  and wants to spend the money on buying her local professional football club in Chile.

Daniella Chavez, 35, is hoping to buy O’Higgins F.C., which plays in Chile’s top-flight league, when she raises enough funds.

Chavez claimed that in just two weeks, she has earned $8million (£6.5million) from her OnlyFans account.

She will need to raise a total of $20 million (£16.4million) in order to have a chance at buying the club, which is based in Chavez’s home city of Rancagua, south of Santiago.

O’Higgins is currently owned by Chilean businessman Ricardo Abumohor.

Chavez has admitted that the only reason she set up the OnlyFans account was to raise enough funds to buy O’Higgins as she is an avid fan of the football club.

Chavez told Chilean radio station ADN: ‘I believe that with my management team, we can do things better, return to Rancagua a winning team, with aspirations.

‘Not playing just to participate. I want a winning team that fights for everything.’

O’Higgins was forced to issue a statement saying that they had not ruled out Chavez buying the club after a member of the club’s leadership said there were no plans to ‘sit down to talk with Chavez’.

Chavez had hit back at the O’Higgins leadership and accused them of sexism.

She wrote on Twitter last week: ‘I have raised $8 million (£6.5million). today I see in the news that the O’Higgins leadership does not want to sell to me.’

Chavez added: ‘Ricardo Abumohor put it up for sale and now that I want to buy it they tell me no! I thought this man was more serious and I’m sure I can do much more for the club than him… I’m from the Region, I’m a fan and he’s not!

‘Apparently Abumohor [wants to sell the club] unless a woman wants to buy the club.’

The  fans club board was forced to issue a statement afterwards and said: ‘Faced with press articles in digital media that have stated – with reserved sources – that the Abumohor family rules out the sale of the club to a particular person, we want to clarify that this information is erroneous and does not represent the values of the Abumohor family.

‘Although the club has previously stated that it is open to the incorporation of new actors or investors to promote the growth of the institution, these proposals must be formally presented to the leadership that heads the club.

‘We cannot consider as real, concrete or formal, interests manifested through social networks. We are a serious institution publicly recognised for its values.

‘The club rejects the notion that they would be opposed to someone ‘based on their origins, race or social status.’

Chavez said she accepted the statement and is now focused on raising enough money to buy the club and organising a meeting with the O’Higgins board.

Chavez has 1.7 million followers on Twitter and a subscription to her OnlyFans account costs £17 per month.
