Brazil icon Neymar turned 32 on Monday. The Al-Hilal attacker remains sidelined due to a serious injury and will miss out the entire season. Meanwhile, he is in the news for the wrong reason yet again, after a woman has come forward claiming that she had a child with Neymar. Hungarian Gabriella Gaspar claimed that the duo had a one-night stand in South America a decade ago. Neymar, whose misadventures with divas are infamous, now face a civil suit in his homeland over the new development. Here is breaking down the Gabriella Gaspar-Neymar Jr story so far.
Who? Gabriella Gaspar claims that Brazilian superstar Neymar Jr is the father of her 10-year-old daughter.
The girl child: Gabriella Gaspar alleged that she conceived the child, reportedly named Jazmin Zoe, after she met Neymar in Bolivia.
The demand? According to Hungarian media reports, the woman demands a DNA test to prove the child's paternity and monthly child support of about $32,500. She has also asked for an additional amount of about $20 million for the 10 years she had to raise the child without support.
Where? It was in a family court in Brazil's Sao Paulo that Gabriella Gaspar filed a civil petition. She reportedly mentioned in the petition that she was forced to move court and multiple attempts to reach out to Neymar and his family failed.
The claim: According to the former Hungarian model, she spent time with Neymar when the former Barcelona star was in Bolivia's Santa Cruz de la Sierra where he trained with the country's national team ahead of a friendly.

After Neymar played a friendly match in Bolivia the two spent an entire day together before she returned to Budapest, Daily News Hungary said in a report. She was among the guests invited to the game and ended up meeting the former PSG icon.
Gabriella says her daughter has familiar facial features like that of the Brazilian star's mother and sister, media reports said. Gabriella said Jazmine regularly watched him on TV and “is eager to finally see him and hug him”.
Respone: Neymar has not commented on the matter yet.
Neymar's children: 32-year-old Neymar fathered his firstborn when he was still a teenager. The boy is now 13. In October last year, he welcomed a daughter with his former partner Bruna Biancardi -- a model and influencer.
