Famous for his errant behavior and the various controversies in which he is involved outside the four lines, striker Adriano “Imperador” will have to walk the line with his new girlfriend. This is because Bruna Gonzaga, 23 years old, with whom the attacker has been dating, is the step-sister of the UFC heavyweight Gabriel Gonzaga, “Napão”.

According to information from the Rio newspaper “Extra”, Adriano and Bruna have been dating for around three weeks. The young woman, just 23 years old, eight years younger than the football player, is a university student. Bruna is studying psychology, which could help Adriano, who at the height of his career needed psychological support when he abandoned everything.

At 31 years old, Adriano has been without a club since 2012, when he had troubled spells at Corinthians and Flamengo. Contrary to what the “Emperor” is experiencing, Napão is in a great phase in the UFC. The former heavyweight title challenger has won five of his last six fights and is very close to returning to the top-10 of the category.
