Neymar publicly apologises to his Santos teammate Robinho Júnior after slapping him during a training session. Multiple outlets report that the incident involved the 34-year-old Brazil forward and the 18-year-old son of former player Robinho. Santos had opened an investigation earlier in the week following the altercation. Neymar tells reporters that he had already apologised but that he “crossed the line,” offering the apology in front of the media. Robinho Júnior confirms after Santos’ match in Paraguay that the matter is resolved, saying everything is settled. During the subsequent game, Neymar scores Santos’ goal and embraces Robinho Júnior during the celebration, signaling their reconciliation. According to Brazilian media accounts cited by some reports, the dispute begins when Neymar becomes upset about being dribbled past by the younger teammate during training. The outlets also note Neymar’s ongoing hopes regarding future Brazil involvement, while they describe the reconciliation as the two players move past the earlier confrontation.
