PSG's Brazilian striker Neymar took part in the European Poker Tour tournament in Paris, RMC Sport reports.
On Wednesday, 15 February, the day after the French club's defeat by Bayern Munich, Neymar suddenly appeared at the poker tournament. The Brazilian reportedly sat down at the table in the middle of the day, lost quickly, and left. At 22:30 local time, he returned to play for 10 thousand euros in a major tournament.
Neymar's behaviour sparked conversations among fans, especially against the backdrop of a motivational speech by PSG's French striker Kylian Mbappe after the defeat by Munich. In this speech, Mbappe urged his teammates to get enough sleep and get fit before the return leg.
