Candice Brook, the wife of Galatasaray footballer Leroy Sane, alleged that one of his teammates’ girlfriends sent him a private message. According to Onedio’s account of her Instagram comments, Brook did not name the person, saying she did not want families and children to be hurt. The report recounts Brook’s allegation; it does not present the messaging as independently verified.
Onedio based its report on comments on the Instagram account cpfromie. According to the report, the exchange began when a user wrote that they found Brook and Sane’s relationship strange. Brook defended their relationship in her reply, saying they had been together for nearly 10 years.
Brook’s response also included remarks about Black American culture. In the same comment thread, she discussed the person she alleged had messaged Sane. Responding to a follower’s question, she said the person was not Turkish. That detail is also part of the statement attributed to Brook, rather than independently verified information.
According to the comments reported by Onedio, Brook said she did not want to escalate the dispute because the teammate in question had a family and children. She did not direct her allegation at the player himself; she spoke positively about him and said she did not want his family or the team to suffer because of another person’s conduct. The allegation is based on Candice Brook’s comments on the Instagram account cpfromie, as reported by Onedio. The report recounts Brook’s statements; it does not establish the messaging as an independently verified event.
At the time of Onedio’s report, Leroy Sane and Galatasaray had not commented on the matter.
