The bond between a footballer and his wife and girlfriend (WAG) is a special relationship in life and one that should remain sacred.
However, the beautiful game is not short of its scandals and super-injunctions and there have been more than enough footballers to have given in to temptation throughout their careers
1.John Terry (Wayne Bridge’s girlfriend)
The famous story of Terry getting romantically involved with then-teammate Wayne Bridge’s wife Vanessa Perroncel could not be erased from the mind of English fans. Wayne Bridge refused to shake the hands of John Terry and the Chelsea man was subsequently stripped off the captaincy at the National team.
2.Thibaut-Courtois (Kevin De Bruyne’s Girlfriend)
In 2014, news broke that the former Chelsea goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois slept with girlfriend of Belgian teammate, Kevin De Bruyne in 2012. Apparently, De Bruyne had cheated on his girlfriend with her best friend. So Caroline Linen went ahead to have an affair with teammate, Courtois to get back at him. Although, it appears the duo have buried the hatchet.
3. Mauro Icardi (Maxi Lopez’s Wife)
The Inter Milan striker decided to snatch his teammate’s wife; Maxi Lopez was married to Wanda Nara, and the couple had three children. Mauro Icardi is now married to the Wanda Nara and has another kid with her. Maxi Lopez refuses to shake Icardi’s hand whenever there’s a clash between Torino and Inter Milan.
4. Jordan Ayew (Afriyie Acquah’s Wife)
Although, the 27-year-old may appear to be a decent player on the pitch but his track record off the pitch is not impressive as the Crystal Palace player allegedly had a four-year affair with the wife of Black Stars’ teammate Afriye Acquah. A leaked tape on YouTube revealed Ayew four-year affair with Afriye Acquah’s wife, Amanda.
