Former Real Madrid Vinicius Tobias tattooed the name of who he thought was his child on his arm, only so his ex-girlfriend could reveal the baby wasn’t his.
The Brazilian full-back, who spent two years on loan at Los Blancos, is currently playing in the Ukrainian Premier League with Shakhtar Donetsk.
On October 8, Ingrid Lima welcomed daughter Maite into the world with Tobias, despite their divorce.
In celebration, Tobias decided to get Maite’s name tattooed on his arm, along with “te amo,” which means “I love you” in Portuguese.
However, his influencer ex-girlfriend has since taken to Instagram to inform her 103,000 followers that Tobias is not the father of her daughter.

The Brazilian full-back was loaned to Real Madrid for two years, but only made one appearance
She revealed that after breaking up with Tobias some time ago, she got involved with another man.
It was decided that Lima would undergo a paternity test, which revealed that Maite was not Tobias’ daughter.
“I came to make a statement about something that is becoming annoying and that unfortunately I would have to come out publicly to explain to you,” Lima said.
‘Vinicius and I haven’t been together for a while. During that time I was dating someone, and so was he. We both moved on with our lives.
‘Meanwhile Maite came by. We decided to do a DNA test, and Maite is not Vinicius’ daughter.’

Tobias currently plays for Shakhtar Donetsk and made his debut for the club this season
At just 20 years old, Tobias signed for Real Madrid’s academy after the war in Ukraine prevented him from playing for Shakhtar Donetsk following his move from Brazilian side Internacional.
He made just one appearance during his two years in the Spanish capital before finally making his debut for Donetsk this season.
