Neymar has publicly apologized following a serious incident in training with his Santos teammate, Robinho Jr.
The Brazilian forward admitted that he “lost his temper” during a clash with the 18-year-old talent, reacting physically during a tense training session. The incident reportedly occurred after the youngster dribbled past Neymar, which irritated the veteran and led to a heated argument between them. The situation then escalated into pushing and a slap.
After widespread reactions and pressure from the young player’s camp, Neymar chose to speak out publicly and apologize:
“If they want a public apology, here it is. I lost control,” he stated.
