Neymar writes apology letter for cursing fans on the field

Neymar is living the most difficult days of his career when returning to Santos. Three days ago, Santos lost 1-2 to Inter Porto Alegre and was pushed into the relegation zone, with the fourth position from the bottom, having 14 points after 15 matches.

To make matters worse, Neymar got into a heated argument with a Santos fan in the stands at the end of the match, and teammate Joao Paulo had to step in to break him up. This damaged the Brazilian striker's star image.

After the match, Neymar wrote an apology on Instagram with the content: "In the heat of the moment, it is difficult to control emotions when being unjustly insulted... I will never argue with the fans when they criticize me on the pitch; there, they have the right to give their opinion on whether I played badly or not. They even have the right to boo me. But what they cannot do is insult me ​​like he (the fan arguing with Neymar) did".

Neymar also revealed the reason why he reacted so strongly to this fan: "That fan said that I was a mercenary with my father, said bad things about my family and friends... I'm sorry, but it's hard to control myself.

I came to Santos to try to help the club in the best way I can, both on and off the pitch!

And the day the fans think I can no longer help or I am damaging the club in any way, I will be the first to pack up and leave!

Santos is one of my greatest passions and as long as I have the strength, I will give everything for this club... I will run, scream and even fight if necessary to bring Santos to the position they deserve. Hello, all Santos".
