Neymar’s weight, target of internet jokes: ‘He ate his salary’

The Al-Hilal star is dressed in baggy black clothes, but could not hide the fact that he is far from his ideal weight. Fans also noted that Romario (58) is in better shape than Neymar (31).

“The food in the canteen is good,” “What a waste,” “He ate his salary,” are some of the comments posted on the X social network, News.ro reports.

Neymar tore the cruciate ligaments of his left knee in the match between Uruguay and Brazil (2:0, qualifier for the 2026 World Cup) and is recovering in his country.
