And incredibly, it's claimed the former Hoops star is one of FOUR members of the same team who are involved with the same woman, who is said to be the daughter of a businessman linked to the club.

But the blonde fan in question, as quoted in various outlets, alleges that the player arrived at the meeting point in an Amarok V6 pickup truck with things "quickly escalating to kissing and sexual conversations in the car". It's a scandal which has rocked Brazil in recent days, with Internacional even attempting to laugh it off with a social media post which read: "Whether by bus, van, or Amarok, grab three more friends and come to Beira-Rio!" Bernabei signed for the Hoops from from Argentine side Lanus in 2022 for £3.75m and was expected to potentially dislodge Greg Taylor from the left-back slot. But after only 28 appearances in just under two full seasons at Parkhead he was sent on loan to Internacional in Brazil, where his performances earned a permanent deal with a fee in the region of £5m in January. He's become a massive hero with the club's fans - but this report could put that reputation at risk. It's claimed that the woman in question reached out to Bernabei's wife with an Instagram message after the incident. Backed up by screenshots of social media messages apparently exchanged between the pair, a report first aired in Portal LeoDias reads: "According to reports and screenshots obtained by our team, the Argentine player allegedly cheated on his wife with a blonde fan in an extramarital encounter on July 10th at a gas station in the south zone of Porto Alegre. It adds: "According to the woman, Bernabei used Instagram's temporary mode to automatically delete conversations between the two, in an attempt to avoid any kind of recording. "The meeting place was chosen because it was private, away from the city's hustle and bustle, and the player arrived at the meeting point in an Amarok V6 pickup truck.

"She also points out that Bernabei maintains contact with other women and acts deliberately to keep his wife's attention away." The woman in question is quoted as telling reporters: "I could tell: he wasn't just mine. This guy is a jerk. He's chatting with several women, exchanging messages with other women, fans." "He completely disregards his wife's suspicions. He denies it to the end, puts on a saintly front, and plays the victim." She claims that Bernabei promised to do it again, saying: 'I went to get out of the car and he pulled me back to kiss me some more and said he was going to call me to see me again. She added: "I even told [his wife], Look I'm sorry, I made a mistake with you. "I'm coming here to tell you all this, I made a mistake but I'm telling you this." 4 The woman contacted Benabei's wife Credit: Portal LeoDias "I ended up regretting it but she didn't believe me and that was it. I ave a boyfriend but I had a fight with him, we weren't together at the time. It wasn't a matter of me cheating. "People are judging me, saying I wanted fame. The last thing I want is that. I don't want to be seen. I don't want anyone to know my name. I'm coming here precisely because I wasn't the only one." Bernabei has shared numerous snaps of himself with his partner on social media, writing: 'The most sacred thing: family!!!' Back in August 2023, he was fined £1,875 after he was found to be driving when more than twice over the limit. He was picked up by cops in Glasgow city centre after the Hoops' 5-0 win at Kilmarnock with 48 micrograms of alcohol in 100 millilitres of breath when the limit is 22 micrograms.

Alexandro Bernabei in line to trigger Celtic transfer millions as champs primed to cash in on him twice
Celtic could be set for an unexpected windfall with La Liga side Sevilla weighing up a big money move for Alexandro Bernabei only six months after the Hoops banked £4million for the outcast. The man from Argentina joined Internacional in Brazil's Serie A in January after impressing on loan and has been tipped to win a call-up for the world champions. His displays have caught the eye of Sevilla, who have now twice sent scouts to watch him, including his latest game against Juventude and are set to swoop for him when the Spanish transfer window reopens in July. It's believed Celtic insisted on a sell-on clause for the 24-year-old when they concluded the deal earlier this year, with Bernabei signing a three-year deal in South America. His club are having to make significant financial cutbacks after posting a £6million loss last month and are looking to sell some of their star men. Sevilla have endured a disappointing season after flirting with relegation from La Liga and want to rebuild for next season and have targeted Bernabei. Bernabei made 28 appearances for Celtic in total since arriving from Lanus in 2022 and scored one goal at Ross County.

Ex-Celtic flop shock target for La Liga giants Sevilla after resurrecting his career just months after quitting Parkhead
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) FORMER Celtic flop Alexandro Bernabei has become a shock target for Spanish club Sevilla after reviving his career back in South America. Scouts from the La Liga club will watch him in action this weekend as they consider a summer move for the left-back who was sold to Internacional in January. Sign up for the Celtic newsletter Sign up 2 Alexandro Bernabei has resurrected his career in Brazil Credit: Alamy 2 He left the Hoops permanently during the winter window Credit: Kenny Ramsay The Hoops somehow made a profit on the Argentine, who only made 28 appearances in just under two full seasons at the club before being sent on loan to Brazil. He moved to Parkhead from Argentinean side Lanus in 2022 for £3.75m and left in a reported £5m deal. Internacional could make a quick buck if Sevilla firm up their interest in Bernebei, who has more than three years left on his contract. The La Liga club have been on the lookout for a new left-back since January when they scrapped Valentin Barco's loan from Brighton and failed to find a suitable replacement. According to information from Esportes GZH, Sevilla's representatives will accompany Bernebei's agent Juan Cruz Oller when they watch. Internacional's next league match against Juventude from one of the stadium's executive boxes. Since leaving Glasgow, the 24-year-old has established himself as the best left-back in Brazil's Serie A and has been tipped for a call-up to the full Argentina squad. Lionel Scaloni, the World Cup-winning coach, has so far remained loyal to the players who excelled for him in Qatar during the South American qualifiers. But with Argentina's place at the 2026 finals now mathematically assured, Scaloni is understood to be ready to experiment by bringing some new faces into his squad for the next matches against Chile and Colombia in June.
