The atmosphere turned tense during a Santos FC training session. According to Globo Esporte, everything started from a poorly received technical move.
Neymar was involved in a heated incident during training. Humiliated by an 18-year-old Robinho Junior after being dribbled past, Neymar reportedly lost his temper immediately. The situation escalated quickly: after a verbal clash, the number 10 knocked the young player to the ground before slapping him, leaving teammates stunned.
Tensions Rise Within Santos Training Session
The coaching staff intervened promptly to prevent the situation from worsening. Aware he had crossed the line, Neymar is said to have apologized shortly after. For his part, Robinho Junior chose to de-escalate, avoiding any further conflict.
According to reports, the two players share a close relationship, almost like a mentor and protégé. This bond reportedly helped restore calm quickly after the incident.
Although the matter seems internally resolved, the timing is unfortunate for Neymar. With the 2026 FIFA World Cup approaching, this episode fuels ongoing criticism in Brazil. Under pressure, the forward once again faces questions about his behavior, falling short of the exemplary leadership image expected of him.
