Former Senegalese national soccer team winger Keita Valde (30) said in an interview with Italy 'Kanal5' on the 9th (local time). "Betrayal is a burning word. Cheating my wife is the biggest mistake I've ever made. My (former) wife deserves all the love and respect in the world. I am entirely responsible for this matter. This problem is affecting my family"
Valde, who played for Inter Milan in the 2018-2019 season, reportedly had an affair with Wanda Nara, the wife of Mauro Icardi (Galatasaray), his teammate at the time, for as many as three years. Icardi, who is in a custody battle with his divorced country, filed evidence of an affair with his former teammate Valde in court last month.
In a message to his country's mother, Icardi said the country slept with Valde and became infected with the COVID-19 pandemic, and he lived in two houses for as many as three years. Spanish journalist Jordi Martin reported that Nara and Valde fell in love in a 2023 report. In Martin's voice released, Valde turned to the country and said, `You are a wonderful woman. It's incredibly heartwarming.
Valde, who played in Lazio, Monaco, Sampdoria, Cagliari and Espanyol, indirectly admitted to the affair. He said "The battle between the country and Icardi has nothing to do with my life. I know the mistake I made. I'm sorry for my mistake, but if my family is affected (by this), I'll fight like a lion"
"Already started legal action for my wife, the only one I love," he said. Valde, who joined Turkiye's Chivaspor in the summer of 2024, was released in January after failing to last two years on his contract. Icardi, who played for Inter Milan from 2013 to 2020, has played for Galatasari since 2022 after playing for Paris Saint-Germain. Icardi, who gave up his starting position to Victor Osimhen this season, scored four goals in seven games. Icardi recently started a new love.
