    Neymar’s mum’s blood-soaked toyboy boyfriend Tiago Ramos claims he was stabbed and ‘almost died’ in restaurant attack

    NEYMAR’S mum’s on-off toyboy boyfriend Tiago Ramos claimed he was stabbed in a restaurant in the Mexican resort of Cancun during a sunshine break.
    The pair flew to a five-star hotel in the holiday paradise last week after Nadine Goncalves reportedly gave model and internet gamer Ramos ‘a second chance’.

    Nadine Goncalves is believed to have flown to Cancun with her younger lover

    But the 24-year-old posted a shocking Instragram video at the weekend showing blood over his neck and chest as he went public with details of the attack.
    It was not clear on Monday if the 24-year-old had contacted police about the restaurant incident or had been treated in hospital.
    Ramos is four years younger than Paris Saint-Germain star Neymar and 28 years younger than divorced mum-of-two Nadine.
    And insisting the assault had been premeditated, he said: “I almost died for something I didn’t do. I arrived at the restaurant and asked for a plate of meat.

    “I don’t know what happened. I didn’t do anything but they didn’t let me stay.”
    Claiming one of three men had stabbed him, he added: “This is not going to stay the way it is. I have the number of the person who did this and I am going to return to Mexico.”
    Ramos also revealed he was alone in Mexico, appearing to confirm Neymar’s mum had returned to Brazil without him after jetting with him to Cancun.
    The pair were pictured together last week on a flight from Sao Paulo to Panama.

    And the two appeared to be attempting a reconciliation as Nadine later posted a picture of herself in a bikini in the sea thought to have been taken in Cancun.
    However, she is yet to confirm or deny they were in Mexico together.
    Nadine broke up with Ramos for a second time in June after an incident in which he cut his arm with glass. Her spokesperson at the time blamed it on a ‘domestic accident’.
    The pair have only ever published one photograph of themselves together on social media, showing them with their arms round each other in Nadine’s garden on April 11.
    The post was captioned: “The inexplicable cannot be explained, just experienced.”
    Brazilian journalist Sonia Abrao claimed Neymar’s mum had raced to Tiago’s rescue late last month after he suffered an emotional crisis believed to be linked to their break-up.
    He has been open about his battle with depression in online posts.

    And his mental health admissions followed revelations keep-fit fanatic Tiago had dated a string of men including Neymar’s personal chef.
    Alleged pressure on Nadine from her family after the model’s gay relationships were made public, was blamed for her reported decision to end the brief affair.
    In May 44-year-old Spaniard Rita Cumplido – one of at least two older women Tiago is understood to have dated in the past – told a Brazilian TV station he had assaulted her during an alcohol-fuelled jealous rage.
    She also claimed she had taken out a restraining order against Ramos following the October 2019 assault. He did not comment on reports at the time.
    Sao Paulo-based PR consultant Irinaldo Oliver – who confessed to a brief affair with Tiago after his relationship with Nadine became public in April – said earlier this year: “I was shocked by this news about his new relationship and my phone hasn’t stopped ringing.
    “I began to receive photos of him with Neymar’s mum. I’m astonished. I always knew he saw women as well but I had never seen him with any.”

    It has also been reported Tiago was romantically involved with a Brazilian actor and stand-up comic called Carlinhos Maia.
    And a millionaire businessman called Eduardo Pereira is said to have treated him like a ‘prince’ by moving him into his mansion and letting him use his fleet of expensive sports cars.
    Tiago was described as a ‘promising footballer’ when he played for Ferroviario Atletico Clube based in the city of Fortaleza at the start of his short career.
    And he has previously been described in Brazil as a friend of Neymar’s.
    He has also met other football icons like Ronaldinho.
    After having his photo taken alongside the former Barcelona and AC Milan star in December 2017, Tiago wrote: “It’s magic.
    “I’m speechless when it comes to describing this moment but my face says it all, lots of happiness and lots of emotion.
    “I’m very happy to have known you.”

    Jese Rodriguez SACKED by PSG after sex scandal amid claims ex-Stoke star cheated on reality TV partner with model pal

    JESE RODRIGUEZ has been SACKED by Paris Saint-Germain after a sex scandal.
    The former Real Madrid man, 27, was accused of cheating on his partner with her model friend.

    The former Stoke forward was embroiled in a sex scandal and pictured ignoring social distancing rules at a party with partner Aurah Ruiz, centre

    He was also pictured at a party in Gran Canaria ignoring social distancing rules and without any face masks.
    And the French champions have now terminated his contract six months early.
    It is understood PSG chief Nasser Al-Khelaifi was tired of the ‘stain’ Jese’s personal affairs were projecting on to the club and took action to cut him loose.
    The ex-Stoke forward joined the Ligue 1 side from Real in 2016 but has made just 18 appearances, scoring twice.

    He accumulated just 22 minutes of action this season before his Parc des Princes stay was cut short.
    But it is off the field where he is also having trouble.
    Jese and Aurah Ruiz, the mother of his child, previously split in January 2018 over the care of their premature baby.
    But, having reconciled, they could be on the rocks again after Jese’s latest cheat claims.

    The Spaniard has been accused of infidelity with Aurah’s pal Rocio Amar, who has posted audio clips to Instagram that include Jese calling his partner ‘crazy’ and ‘boring’.
    Rocio has recounted ‘sexual encounters’ that she had with the footballer in a Madrid nightclub.
    In a bizarre incident, Jese then publicly spoke to Aurah while she appears on the ‘Big Brother’ style Spanish reality TV show, ‘La Casa Fuerte’.
    He’s quoted as denying their break-up, and told her: “Good night, baby. I want to tell you something. If you are happy continue, if you are not happy you are not obliged to be there.
    “I love to see you happy, and I see that you are not happy. If you want to continue you have to win.”
    Shocked, Aurah, 31, responded: “Really? I can’t believe it, is it you? I don’t know what to tell you, I can’t believe it.”
    To this, Jese then offered assurances over their son, Nyan: “I have been with baby Nyan and he is super good. Everything is fine.”

    Arsenal given major boost in Houssem Aouar transfer hunt with midfielder ‘set to quit Lyon before end of 2020-21 season’

    ARSENAL target Houssem Aouar is set to quit Lyon before the end of THIS season, according to reports.
    The Gunners have been heavily linked with the Frenchman for months and the latest development will come as a huge boost to the North Londoners.

    Aouar was close to joining Arsenal in the summer transfer window before the Gunners turned their attention to Thomas Partey.
    But the Gunners failed to cough up Lyon’s £55.5million asking price.
    However it has now emerged Aouar could leave the Ligue 1 side before the end of the season, according to L’Equipe.
    The 22-year-old’s relationship with his club’s hierarchy is already under strain following a clash at the end of November.

    The midfielder was reportedly axed from Lyon’s squad for refusing to train.
    Aouar was said to be unhappy at being an unused substitute in Lyon’s 1-0 win over Angers.
    And as a result, the France international is said to have refused to take part in the post-game protocol of warming down with his team-mates.
    Aouar allegedly cited the poor condition of the pitch as the reason for staying in the dressing room – which he retreated to before the final whistle – to take part in the half-hour drill.

    Yet Lyon staff were said to be ‘annoyed’ by the attacker’s decision especially considering the squad had been given a day off on the Monday.
    Aouar was not in the squad for Lyon’s 3-0 victory over Reims the following weekend.
    The midfielder claimed in October he wasn’t disappointed by Lyon’s refusal to sell him and insisted he was happy to stay at his boyhood club.
    But SunSport previously reported Mikel Arteta is expected to launch another bid to sign Aouar after falling short this year.
    The Spaniard wanted to sign French ace Aouar and Chelsea vice-captain Jorginho before the transfer deadline as well as Partey.
    Blues star Jorginho revealed in October his representatives held talks with Arsenal.
    However, the midfielder’s agent Joao Santos has since hinted at another reunion with former Blues boss Maurizio Sarri if he gets a new job.

    PSG chief Leonardo plays down Lionel Messi transfer rumours after Neymar revelation sparked talk of reunion in France

    PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN sporting director Leonardo has played down talk of a move for Lionel Messi.
    Rumours about the Barcelona star’s future only intensified following comments made by Neymar after PSG’s 3-1 win over Manchester United on Wednesday.

    Neymar told journalists he hoped to play alongside Messi again in the future, but Leonardo moved to quell the transfer talk in an interview with Canal+.
    Leonardo said: “You know, it’s normal for Neymar to say that to an Argentinian journalist. He had to talk about Messi, it’s normal.
    “We have to maintain respect for others, he’s a Barcelona player.
    “When somebody talks about our players, we are not happy.

    “So we don’t touch other people’s players. Now is not the time to think about the transfer window.
    “We are very happy with the squad we have. We are thinking of our season and the end of the first part of the season, which was very complicated.
    “We have to stay focused on our goals such as qualifying for the last 16 of the Champions League.
    “And also we have to think about Ligue 1 and avoid finding ourselves in a complicated situation. Let’s keep our focus.”

    PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi would not be drawn into speculation regarding a move for Messi either last week, saying: “Messi is a Barcelona player, I can’t talk about that.”
    Messi attempted to leave Barcelona for Manchester City in the summer but was forced to stay put when the Catalan giants refused to let him leave for nothing.
    The 33-year-old’s contract at Barcelona expires at the end of the season and he will be free to talk to other clubs over a free transfer from January.
    Neymar and Messi enjoyed a trophy-laden spell as team-mates at Barcelona between 2013 and 2017, winning two La Liga titles, three Spanish Cups and the Champions League in 2015.
    The Brazilian told ESPN on Wednesday night: “What I want most of all is to play with Messi again, to be able to enjoy him once again on the pitch.
    “I’m sure that next year, we have to do it again.”

    Montpellier 1 PSG 3: Kylian Mbappe scores 100th goal for French champions as they move four points clear in Ligue 1

    KYLIAN MBAPPE bagged his 100th PSG goal to fire them four points clear in Ligue 1.
    The 21-year-old became just the fifth player in club history to reach the landmark in Saturday’s 3-1 win at Montpellier.

    Only Edinson Cavani (200), Zlatan Ibrahimovic (156), Pauleta (109) and Dominique Rocheteau (100) had previously reached the landmark.
    Moise Kean scored his fifth goal in seven Ligue 1 appearances for the French champions.
    Italy striker Kean struck in the second half after Stephy Mavididi had cancelled out Colin Dagba’s opener ahead of the break, before Mbappe wrapped up the game in stoppage time.
    PSG have 28 points from 13 games but second-placed Marseille have two games in hand.

    Third-placed Lille have an opportunity to narrow the gap to two points when they host Monaco on Sunday.
    Montpellier are sixth on 23 points, two ahead of seventh-placed RC Lens who beat Stade Rennais 2-0 away earlier on Saturday.
    Thomas Tuchel fielded a surprising 5-3-2 formation with Angel Di Maria and Kean up front.
    Mbappe started on the bench and Neymar was rested ahead of Tuesday’s key Champions League game against Istanbul Basaksehir.

    Dagba put the visitors ahead in the 33rd minute, scoring from inside the box from Di Maria’s cutback.
    Montpellier hit back four minutes before the interval when Mavididi beat Keylor Navas at the far post after Dagba had saved the Englishman’s first attempt on his goal line.
    PSG had three chances early in the second half but Idrissa Gueye and Kean, twice, lacked accuracy.

    Di Maria came closer in the 69th minute with a low shot but Jonas Omlin fully stretched to deny the Argentine as PSG struggled to make their domination count.
    Kean, however, restored the capital side’s advantage on 77 minutes with a powerful cross-shot at the end of a counter attack before being substituted for Mbappe, who tapped in from Layvin Kurzawa’s cross to put the result beyond doubt.
    The home side pushed harder in the finale but PSG remained compact at the back to claim their first league victory in three games.

    Jese Rodriguez ‘faces sack at PSG’ over sex scandal amid claims he cheated on reality TV partner with her model pal

    JESE RODRIGUEZ could face the sack at Paris Saint-Germain after landing himself in hot water.
    Amid claims that he cheated on his partner, the former Stoke striker now finds himself in trouble again after being pictured at a party in Gran Canaria.

    The bash, thrown for partner Aurah Ruiz, featured no masks and no social distancing.
    Jese, 27, has featured for just 22 minutes this season, with PSG chiefs reportedly growing ‘fed up’ of his behaviour.
    And his latest misdemeanour could spell the end of his time at Parc des Princes.
    According to Footmercato, sources close to PSG management told Iberian media that they: “Will not allow Jese to soil the name of the club, even if he is a secondary player for the team.”

    The sack threat comes as Jese’s personal life has taken another dramatic turn.
    Jese and Aurah, the mother of his child, previously split in January 2018 over the care of their premature baby.
    But, having reconciled, they could be on the rocks again after Jese’s latest cheat claims.
    The Spaniard has been accused of infidelity with Aurah’s pal Rocio Amar, who has posted audio clips to Instagram that include Jese calling his partner ‘crazy’ and ‘boring’.

    PSG chief Nasser Al-Khelaifi is claimed to be tired of the ‘stain’ that Jese’s personal affairs are projecting on to the club.
    As if matters weren’t dramatic enough, Jese has publicly spoken to Aurah while she appears on the ‘Big Brother’ style Spanish reality TV show, ‘La Casa Fuerte’ – despite the perception being that they had broken up again over the affair claims.
    He’s quoted as denying their break-up, and told her: “Good night, baby. I want to tell you something. If you are happy continue, if you are not happy you are not obliged to be there.
    “I love to see you happy, and I see that you are not happy. If you want to continue you have to win.”

    To this, Jese responded by offering assurances over their son, Nyan: “I have been with baby Nyan and he is super good.
    “Everything is fine.”
    Jese has failed to deliver the goods at Paris Saint-Germain since joining from Real Madrid in 2016.
    In the four years since, he has appeared for the French champions just 18 times, scoring twice, in between unsuccessful loan spells at Las Palmas, Stoke City, Real Betis and Sporting Lisbon.

    How PSG could line up with Lionel Messi and Neymar but no Mbappe next season as club face transfer dilemma

    NEYMAR has admitted that he is ‘sure’ that he will play with Lionel Messi again next season.
    But Paris Saint-Germain may have to make a hefty sacrifice in order to make the Brazilian’s wish come true.

    How PSG could look next season

    In order to squeak through Financial Fair Play rules, the French champions would have to sell superstar Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid in order to fund the deal.
    With the 21-year-old showing no indications of extending his current contract, which expires in 2022, however, it may be a necessary evil for PSG chiefs.
    But how could Thomas Tuchel, or whoever may be in charge by then at Parc des Princes, line up his side of stars?
    SunSport takes a look.

    For years PSG messed around with the likes of Salvatore Sirigu, Kevin Trapp and even an ageing Gianluigi Buffon as their No1 goalkeeper.
    But in Keylor Navas, they have finally found the perfect man for the job.
    The Costa Rican brings the perfect blend of experience and ability to the PSG backline, and is to be a pillar of any success they achieve in the next few years, at least.
    Alessandro Florenzi arrived from Roma on loan back in September, and with his good form, appears to be a good bet to extend his stay in the city of love to next season and beyond.

    Gone are the days of Thiago Silva and David Luiz, with PSG having their next generation of central defenders at the back.
    Marquinhos, at 26, is now at the peak of his powers, and offers excellent leadership reminiscent of his Chelsea-starring former team-mate, while Presnel Kimpembe is a World Cup winner entering his prime years.
    PSG may be on the prowl for a new left-back, with soon to be out-of-contract Bayern Munich superstar David Alaba on their radar.
    Danilo Pereira arrived from Porto in the summer and is making the holding midfield position his own, as PSG hope to have finally found a proper replacement for former stalwart Thiago Motta.
    One of the best, most technically proficient midfielders in the world, Marco Verratti is still a key man in Tuchel’s midfield at 28.
    And he could be joined by out-of-favour Tottenham star Dele Alli, with PSG set to try again for the Englishman after three failed approaches last summer.
    Messi can then slot on to the right of a star-studded front-three featuring his pals, compatriot Mauro Icardi, and former Barcelona team-mate Neymar.
