Brazilian football star Neymar Jr. recently made headlines for showing off a luxurious watch valued at approximately $280,000. The watch, created by New York company Jacob & Co., features a dial resembling a roulette wheel and a case made of rose gold, adding to its opulence. Neymar, known for his controversial antics and gambling habit, attracted attention with this extravagant accessory.
Neymar's gambling habits have often been a topic of discussion. He has been seen indulging in gambling activities even during times when he was supposed to be recovering from injuries. For instance, despite being unable to play in a Paris Saint-Germain match due to an injury, Neymar attended the Formula 1 Monaco Grand Prix and visited the renowned Monte Carlo casino, sharing these experiences on his social media.
The footballer’s relationship with gambling extends beyond mere visits to casinos. Neymar is known to broadcast his gambling sessions online, where he often faces significant losses. One notable incident saw him lose $1 million in just 60 minutes of online casino play, a moment he openly discussed on his stream. This loss became a point of mockery for many in the following months.
