Spartak football player reacted to media reports about intimate relationships with Wanda Nara

Spartak Moscow striker Keita Balde and his wife Simona denied rumors about the footballer’s intimate relationship with Wanda Nara, who is the wife of Turkish Galatasaray striker Mauro Icardi.

According to News Rebeat, Wanda Nara and the Red-White striker had two sexual encounters – in Milan and Dubai. Previously, Balde and Icardi played together for Inter from 2018 to 2019.

We don’t like this life and this noise. What happened to us may happen to others tomorrow. How do people think to say something like that? We spent several birthdays together with Icardi, warmly communicated as colleagues at work, – quotes Balde Radio Miter.

– They (Wanda Nara and Icardi – approx. Sportbox) live like that and fool everyone, they are really stupid like children. I do not want our names to be in the same row, now we would not even drink coffee with them. My husband is a footballer, not a gossip, I don’t want these people to mention our names anywhere,” added Balde’s wife Simona.

Balda, 27, joined Spartak Moscow in August 2022. The Senegalese moved to the Russian club from the Italian Cagliari, but in the first part of the season he managed to play only 1 official match as part of the Red-Whites, after which he received a two-month disqualification for violating doping control rules. The striker’s suspension officially ended on December 6, 2022.
