🎥 Incognito with a twist: masked Neymar causes a stir in New York

A week ago, Neymar just managed to prevent relegation with Santos FC, and now the Brazilian is using a few free days for relaxation before he has to undergo another knee surgery.

Together with his entourage, Neymar is currently in New York. A global star like him doesn't necessarily have an easy time staying unnoticed in a metropolis of millions. He tried nonetheless - but with little success, which could possibly be due to his extravagant outfit.

Combien de joueurs de foot dans le monde seraient dans le même cas à New-York ?

The incognito mode is only partially achieved with these bright colors and the mask. Even though there are many flamboyant characters in the Big Apple, Neymar definitely stands out with his look. Or was that exactly the plan?

In any case, Neymar is not entirely alone in New York.
