Manchester City defender Wayne Bridge has issued a statement via his lawyer after his ex-girlfriend became involved in an alleged affair scandal with Chelsea's John Terry.

Allegations emerged of an affair between England and Chelsea captain John Terry, who is married to Toni Poole, and Bridge's ex-girlfriend Vanessa Perroncel.

The affair allegedly occurred while both players were teammates at Chelsea.

Perroncel and Bridge are no longer romantically involved although the pair do have a son together.

Terry has made no comments on the situation and Perroncel has enlisted the services of publicist Max Clifford.

Bridge's lawyer issued the following statement: "I have read the press reporting in the last two days. The reports deal with matters which are of a deeply personal and private nature.

"My primary concern is the welfare of my son. Therefore, I intend to make no comment whatsoever either now or in the future about these reports and ask that my privacy is respected."

Terry was voted Dad of the Year last year in a Daddies Sauce survey and has two children with wife Toni.
