    The vessel had set sail from the Port of Santos just after the couple had got on board and Neymar got off.
    Carlos, 32, was declared missing as it sailed towards Angra dos Reis, west of Rio de Janeiro.
    He had been travelling with a woman called Vitória Bárbara Momenso, who he had been in a casual relationship with for about two years.
    Bárbara said the pair had a row on the boat before he suddenly jumped overboard.

    She said “There was no way to run after him.
    “It happened very quickly.”
    She added: “I was in shock, I was frozen.”
    After being treated by onboard medics, Bárbara disembarked the cruise the next day and spoke to the police.

    Carlos worked as a programmer at a bank and part-time as a DJ in São Paulo.
    He had also written two books of poems and had a YouTube channel where he commented on current affairs.
    Two vessels were involved in the hours-long search for Carlos, which failed to locate him.
    Afterwards, the “New Year at Sea” cruise resumed its journey, but a concert by singer-songwriter Alexandre Pires was cancelled.
    Carlos’s sister accuses Momenso of exploiting him financially.
    Christiane Mota da Silva, 44, told local media: “Carlos was practically broke. She financially consumed him. He funded the trip because it was her dream.”
    She added: “She will never admit it, but she is responsible for what happened. She didn’t throw him, but she is the one who pushed him to this point.”
    MSC Cruises said in a statement: “A thorough search was conducted on board, and it was confirmed that the guest intentionally jumped into the sea.”
    The MSC Preziosa had hosted Al Hilal and Brazil star Neymar’s extravagant party cruise from December 26-29.
    Prices began at upwards of £800, according to the Mirror, with some setting passengers back almost £5,000 for its luxury suites.
    Staterooms are also available on board for a premium experience, with options to cater for families, too.
    Ample amenities to keep passengers occupied include a 4D cinema, bowling alley, casino, games room, gym, spa and water park.

    Neymar, himself, has been getting around with the aid of a cane thanks to his untimely season-ending knee injury while playing for Brazil two months ago.
    The Al-Hilal forward had only played five games for his new Saudi Pro League club since they signed him from Paris Saint-Germain for £77.6m plus add-ons.

    Jake Paul told how to get world title fight after YouTube star announces boxing return following Andre August KO

    JAKE PAUL has been told his change in boxing trajectory puts him on the path to challenging for a world title. The YouTuber-turned-boxer started out his career beating stars of the social media, basketball and MMA world.

    But when he stepped up to fight unbeaten boxer Tommy Fury, 24, in February, he was beaten by split-decision in Saudi Arabia.
    He bounced back in August on points against UFC veteran Nate Diaz, 38, but it would be the last time Paul, 26, took on a non boxer.
    Paul returned against little-known 10-1-1 Andre August, 35, and knocked out the seasoned American in the first round.
    Now the American is set to return on March 2 in Puerto Rico on the undercard of Amanda Serrano’s homecoming bout.
    READ MORE IN BOXING
    No opponent has been named but all signs point towards another traditional boxer as Paul looks to build real credibility in the ring.
    Muhammad Ali’s grandson Nico – a 9-1 middleweight – has been left impressed by Paul’s change of lane.
    Nico, 23, told SunSport: “I give him a ton of respect. His last fight he fought a legitimate boxer, a no-name boxer and I heard he did well.
    “That’s what it’s going to take to get to contender status, to get to champ status, to get to a title fight.

    “It’s going to take fighting someone that nobody knows about, not making any money from it.
    “Just building your resume and then just fighting for millions one day.”
    Nico – whose last fight was documented in an OnlyFans series called Rise & Grind – has been linked with a crossover-style spectacle bout against Paul in the past.
    But he has no interest in stepping into that realm – such is the admiration he has for his legendary grandfather.
    Nico said: “I have so much respect for this legacy, it’s bigger than me. I can’t be selfish with it because a lot of people care for it. 
    “Just going to Africa and seeing so many people chant, “Ali” just for the love and respect they have for my grandfather was crazy. 
    “So, this legacy is bigger than me. I can’t be greedy and be like, ‘I’m going to do a money-grab and start fighting YouTubers.’ 
    “That’s insane, I didn’t get into boxing for the money. I think the money will come in time and I love what I’m doing right now, taking the long road.

    “I want to be champ one day, I want to get to that undisputed level and you can’t do that fighting YouTubers.”
