Not only that, but he is fanatical about poker. So much so, that he even named his dog poker!

Neymar and 7️⃣ Poker

In May 2024, Neymar joined PokerStars as a brand ambassador. At the time, he was joined by another legend of 7️⃣ Brazilian football Ronaldo as a member of Team Sportstars.

"Growing up and playing football everyday has made me a competitive person," 7️⃣ Neymar Jr. said. "When I'm not playing football, playing poker and competing against my teammates on the road or in 7️⃣ home games with friends is one of my favorite things to do."

Neymar has been heavily involved with PokerStars, hosting multiple 7️⃣ charity home games, including one at EPT Barcelona won by Steve O'Dwyer.
