Samuel Eto’o has been involved in a paternity case for some years now, which could have serious consequences for him.
Erika do Rosário Neves, 19, is a young woman who claims to be the daughter of Eto’o, the result of an alleged relationship the Cameroonian had with her mother, Adinelsa do Rosário, in Madrid.
However, the former Inter and Barcelona striker, currently 40 years old, disobeys the courts for more than two years, a period that has passed since the young woman requested a DNA test and a pension of 1500 euros a month.
However, Eto’o has ignored the Court for more than two years, the same ones that have passed since the young woman requested the DNA test and the alimony.
However, so far, the player has not paid the amount in arrears and already has a debt of 60 thousand euros.
For this reason, the former international for Cameroon could be sentenced to prison if he does not pay what he owes, according to Fernando Osuna, lawyer for Erika do Rosário Neves, in statements to ‘El Espanol’.
“He didn’t pay, he’s obligated to do it and he can go to jail if he doesn’t pay. In addition to the court seizing what he has, which is a lot, he can go to prison because in Spain this situation is considered a crime. We don’t want to make blood and if he pays, great. However, if you continue to refuse, we will file a complaint for violation of family duties. Or, still, by family abandonment», he explained.
In February 2020 there was a trial to study the case, which, according to Fernando Osuna, could make Eto’o’s situation even worse.
If the judge understands that there is a clear fraud of the law and an abuse of rights on the part of the Cameroonian, this may cause him to assume the role of the girl’s father.
