What Launa Alonso said about Neymar
“He sent me a DM. That’s all I can say,” Alonso said, as quoted by The Sun.
The presenters were taken aback by the revelation and forced the Olympian to divulge the message’s contents.
“It was left on the request form.
“I cannot tell this here,” she responded.
The stunning swimming sensation recently made headlines in the ongoing Paris Olympics following a row over her ”inappropriate behavior.”
The Paraguayan athlete, however, stated that she is the victim of “lies” in response to rumours that she was kicked out of the Paris 2024 Athletes’ Village due to her behaviour and her visitation to Disneyland.
Alonso was accused of “distracting” other athletes in the Athletes’ Village by dressing sexily instead of in her official Olympic suit.
This infuriated the Paraguayan Olympic Committee’s leaders, who reportedly kicked her out and sent her back home.
Alonso, however, insisted that she was never banished or removed from the nation’s Olympic campaign and pleaded with people not to propagate the false story.
