Neymar has again responded to criticisms of his fitness. The star player of Paris Saint-Germain posts on his Instagram account a series of photos to show that he has trained his excess pounds.

This summer, holiday photos of Neymar appeared on social media showing that the Brazilian was not fully trained. Now the attacker apparently wants to show that he is fit again, given the series of shirtless photos he has posted. Teammate Kylian Mbappé bursts out laughing at the post and posts no fewer than sixty laughing crying emojis. His compatriots Vinicíus Junior, Douglas Costa and Marcelo can also laugh at the post.

On Friday, Neymar also showed that he has the necessary self-mockery. After the World Cup qualifier between Chile and Brazil (0-1), he posted an action photo on his Instagram Stories with the funny text: “The shirt was a size too big”, according to Neymar. “The shirt I was wearing was a size G (size L in Europe). My weight is otherwise fine. For the next game I will ask for a size M shirt. We will continue to make history. Did we play well? No! Did we win? Yes!”

Neymar previously responded with self-mockery to the criticism of his alleged obesity.
