The period is complicated for the former star of FC Barcelona, Samuel Eto’o. After becoming president of the Cameroon Football Federation in December 2021, the Yaoundé native witnessed his country’s elimination from the Africa Cup of Nations, hosted at home. After this sporting disappointment, Georgette’s husband has just seen a decision of a Spanish court go against him.
Indeed, as announced by the Spanish media Marca, the former glory, passed by Inter Milan under the orders of José Mourinho, has just been officially recognized as the father of a 22-year-old girl. A judgment which follows a complaint filed by a certain Adileusa, who claims to have met Samuel Eto’o in a nightclub in Madrid at the end of the 1990s. After their meeting, she indicates that they would have had a relationship, before she did find out she was pregnant. She claims to have “tried to communicate with the future father, but he would not answer his phone calls or his e-mails”.
Samuel Eto’o sentenced to pay €1,400 per month
Justice therefore ruled in favor of the mother and her daughter, Erika Do Rosario Nieves. The 40-year-old Cameroonian will therefore have to pay a monthly pension of €1,400 to the young girl, born in 1999 in a hospital in Madrid. Already at the time, the one who had big problems with an ex, had refused to recognize the paternity of the child. What has changed is that this time, the girl’s mother brought biological documents to the judges attesting to the relationship between Samuel Eto’o and Erika.
The publication clarifies that Lionel Messi’s former Barcelona team-mate has not traveled for the trial. Already the father of five children, he will now have to support his daughter financially, even if he challenges the court’s decision.
