Alarming news for those close to Neymar.

Details: A viral photo on social media platform X shows 34-year-old Santos winger Neymar discreetly playing online poker on his phone during a family movie night at the cinema.

Fans are already sounding the alarm, fearing that their idol has developed a serious gambling addiction that could not only distract him from football but also lead to even more damaging consequences.

Just recently, Neymar found himself embroiled in another controversy after it was revealed that instead of focusing on his injury recovery, he spent two consecutive days playing poker at a tournament, where he reportedly lost around $20,000.

So far, Neymar has not commented on his gambling habits, insisting that his mind is solely on football and the Brazilian national team, with which he is eager to compete at the World Cup.
