Napoli's Lorenzo Lucca and Kevin De Bruyne had a heated exchange on the pitch during Napoli's 4-1 defeat at Porto, according to TuttoMercatoWeb. The row was followed by accusations against the Belgian midfielder on social media.

Lucca's agent has denied that the striker's brother posted criticism of De Bruyne. He says the account in question is a fake, according to Corriere dello Sport and Football Italia.

TuttoMercatoWeb also reports that the clash is not an isolated episode, as De Bruyne has had earlier disputes with two other players.
