Neymar da Silva Santos Júnior, more popularly known as Neymar Jr, is considered one of the best football players in the world known for his versatility and playmaking abilities.

But when he’s not on the field, the 30-year-old Brazilian star is like every one of us — he loves playing video games. In fact, he has a massive following on his Facebook Gaming page with over 88 million followers.

While he’s known for playing FPS games like Call of Duty: Warzone and PUBG on his livestream, Neymar Jr has revealed that he is into mobile gaming as well, particularly Mobile Legends: Bang Bang.

While many superstar athletes like to show off their sports cars, massive houses, and expensive jewelry online, the international football star had something different in mind.

On his Twitter page, he flaunted his newly-bought Exorcist Yu Zhong, a time-limited skin that was released this month. He also had a short caption to go along with the picture.

“New skin for my Yu Zhong,” he wrote.

The MLBB Twitterverse erupted, with multiple personalities such as EVOS Legends Bjorn “Zeys” Ong and MPL PH shoutcaster Karl “Rockhart” To tweeting fire and surprised face emojis.

But perhaps the most surprising tweet was from MPL Indonesia, who offered him a free ticket to the M4 World Championship in Indonesia early next year.

This isn’t the first time he was linked to the game. A few months ago, a leaker on Youtube revealed that the football star will be an exclusive skin for Bruno, similar to Paquito’s Manny Pacquiao skin.
