Brazilian press reports an exchange of shoves and even a slap from the captain, who apparently didn’t appreciate a dribble by the young player.
Neymar is involved in yet another controversy in Brazil. According to Globoesporte, the 34-year-old forward had a heated argument with Robinho Jr. during Santos’ training session on Sunday morning.
The incident occurred during the training session with players who were not used in the match against Palmeiras, managed by Abel Ferreira . It reportedly began when Robinho’s son dribbled past Neymar, which angered the Santos captain. According to the Brazilian press, there was even pushing and shoving, and the veteran forward slapped the young player. Later, Neymar allegedly retaliated with a hard tackle on Robinho Jr. Neither Santos nor Neymar’s representatives confirmed the disagreement, but the situation was reportedly resolved at the club’s training center after an apology from the former Barcelona, PSG, and Al Hilal player.
