Neymar poses with Rihanna as PSG star skips star-studded awards bash in Paris

Neymar showed he can work hard and play hard as he enjoyed a night out with singer Rihanna.

After a long season where he has battled back from a metatarsal injury, the £198million attacker took full advantage of some down time as he was posed alongside the American superstar.

Pictured on his Instagram page with his finger to his lips, the pair left their combined 187m followers stunned with their collaboration.

Neymar was absent from the Union Nationale des Footballeurs Professionnels (UNFP) Football Awards Ceremony on Sunday night where PSG team-mate Kylian Mbappe won the double.
