Neymar was pictured playing poker and eating at McDonald’s barely hours after PSG’s 1-0 Champions League loss to Bayern Munich.
The Brazil international played the whole 90 minutes as the Ligue 1 champions were defeated by the German champions at Parc des Princes on Tuesday, with Kingsley Coman scoring the sole goal.
Rather than returning to the team hotel to relax, Neymar went to the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Paris to participate in the European Poker Tour before stopping at McDonald’s to fulfill his hunger.
Neymar has been a partner of PokerStars since 2014, so was fulfilling his sponsorship agreement there, but words of wisdom from PSG team-mate Kylian Mbappe appear to have fallen on deaf ears when it comes to his eating habits, with the World Cup-winning forward having said on the back of a disappointing display against Bayern: “Our players have to be in good health for the return leg.
Everyone requires adequate nutrition and rest.
We’re going to work hard to get everyone back and qualify.”
