Aleksander Barkov in Court Battle Over Custody of His Child

If you didn't know that Barkov had a child, then you can join the club. Apparently there are not many people who knew of this, actaully.

Well, not only does Barkov have a child, but he is also involved in a court battle against the mother of his child over custody. The child was born in December of last year, but Barkov purposely never made it known to the public.

According to Sieska.fi, of Finland, and TJ Tucker of Markerzone, "Barkov has filed court action against the mother in a Florida court over custody of the child, as well as child support. Barkov is requesting a 'parenting plan' that would include a parenting schedule and joint custody."

I highly recommend checking out this thread from Twitter to build knowledge of the situation.
