PSG's Neymar issues public apology after cheating on his pregnant ...

Paris Saint-Germain forward Neymar (31) has issued a public apology on Instagram after being accused of cheating on his pregnant girlfriend by the Brazilian press. 

Neymar and his partner, Bruna Biancardi, are expecting their first child together, however, it was revealed that the Brazilian forward cheated on her with blogger Fernanda Campos. In a lengthy Instagram post, published on Wednesday evening, the PSG player confirmed the affair, whilst seeking forgiveness from Biancardi. 

Neymar”s message to Biancardi reads as follows: “I do this for you two, and your family. Justifying injustice. It was unnecessary, but I need you in OUR life. I can see the extent to which you’ve been exposed, how much you’ve suffered in all of this, and how much you want to be at my side, and me at yours,” he began.

“I cheated on you guys. I risk saying that I fail every day, on and off the pitch. Only, I resolve my personal issues at home, in the intimacy of my friends and family. All of this has impacted the most special person in my life, the woman I dreamed of having by my side, the mother of my child. This has hurt her family, who have now become my family. Your intimacy has been affected in such a special time – maternity.”

“I have already apologised for my errors, for the useless exposure, but I feel obliged to reassert it publically. If a private affair becomes public, the apology should be public.”

“I can’t imagine myself without you. I don’t know if we will move forward, but TODAY, you really want to try. Our intention will triumph, our love for our baby will win, and our love for each other will fortify us. I love you,” concluded the message.

Whilst Neymar has problems to resolve in his personal life, there are also questions about his future at PSG. According to L’Équipe, the forward is now wanting to remain with Les Parisiens with former manager Luis Enrique set to take the helm. The Brazilian had previously been open to a departure and had notably been linked with a move to Manchester United. 

Neymar hasn’t played for PSG since mid-February after suffering ankle ligament damage against Lille OSC. He then underwent surgery but is expected to return to action next month.
