The football world often talks about what happens on the pitch. But sometimes, players make headlines for completely different reasons. Brazilian international David Luiz, once a familiar face at big clubs like Chelsea and Benfica, is now caught in a storm of controversy away from the game. Recent reports from the Brazilian press, specifically ‘Portal Leo Dias’, point to a “new betrayal scandal” involving the seasoned defender.
The story unfolded through a series of messages that have gone public, grabbing a lot of attention in recent hours. These messages show Karol Cavalcante, identified as the player’s mistress, confronting David Luiz. She was asking for clear answers after he reportedly made an unusual suggestion: inviting a third woman to join their relationship. This “proposal” clearly did not sit well with her.
Karol Cavalcante didn’t hold back her feelings, sending a direct message to David Luiz via Facebook. “I don’t know why you made that proposal,” she wrote, expressing her distress. “Now I have a headache at work and I’m afraid to tell anything. While it was just us, things were calm.” Her message showed real fear about the situation escalating. She added, “But you had this idea to call her… There can be no more comments and these things cannot reach my son’s ears. I’m scared, do something.”
The 38-year-old player’s response to her concerns was quite striking. He suggested that if anything about this third person came out publicly, they should simply sue her. Then, he wrapped up their conversation in an unexpected way: with a prayer. His final words to her were: “Why worried? She has nothing to say or do. If she does, just sue her. Serving the Lord is the way.” It’s quite the statement, especially when facing such a personal crisis.
On the career front, David Luiz currently plays for Pafos. The Brazilian international made a free transfer to the Cypriot club earlier this month. This move came after a brief period playing for Fortaleza.
