Omar Ruiz de Somocurcio, journalist, speaks out on viral video that shows Neymar crying after losing one million euros playing online poker with his friends
Omar Ruiz de Somocurcio, sports journalist, spoke out after a video of PSG forward Neymar "crying" went viral. The video showed Neymar losing one million euros playing online poker with his friends.
Through Panamericana Televisión's official TikTok account, the host of "Teledeportes" criticized Neymar's extravagant spending and pointed out that these actions demonstrate his lack of professionalism.
"It's already been revealed that Neymar earns around 3 million euros per month, so he has lost just under half a paycheck. He is squandering what is left of his career at PSG, where apparently they no longer want him. He is a talented player, but he lacks the professionalism that has been evident for a long time now," said Ruiz de Somocurcio.
Ruiz de Somocurcio also sees it as unlikely that another club would be able to afford the high salary Neymar receives at Paris Saint Germain. He questioned, "Who can continue hiring and paying Neymar what he earns at PSG?"
