Neymar jetted into Germany last night to attend the launch event for his new Neymar Jr. x Replay Capsule Collection in Düsseldorf. The star-studded red carpet event played host to a first look at statement pieces from Neymar's signature collaboration with the denim label.
Despite Paris Saint-Germain being an official partner of Replay, and having a collaborative collection of their own, the club were reportedly left frustrated as Neymar flew out to Düsseldorf just four days before he'll be back in the country with PSG to take on Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League. Usually, this wouldn't be an issue – if there's one club that understands media and promotion events it's PSG – but their frustration lies with the fact that Neymar is currently injured. The Brazilian has been ruled out of their Ligue 1 game against Amiens this weekend and is in a race against the clock to be fit for the Dortmund clash.
PSG think he'd be better off concentrating on his rehabilitation than travelling round Europe mixing it with some of the word's most famous supermodels. We disagree. Hanging around with Isabel Goulart and Alessandra Ambrosia sounds more fun than sitting at home with a bag of frozen peas on your hamstring watching Sky Sports News on a never-ending loop. But, they're probably still a bit annoyed he hosted his lavish birthday party 48 hours before their last game. Look at us sounding all Daily Mail...
As for the collection itself, Neymar was sporting pieces from his signature drop at the fashion event organised by German fashion outlet Peek & Cloppenburg, including a pair of jeans with 'Neymar' on one cuff and 'Replay' on the other, if you're into that. Ah yeah, and he's shaved his head if you hadn't noticed.
Do what you like, pal. Looks like you're having a blast.
