While in Paris, Kanye and PSG soccer superstar Neymar Jr. found some time to link up. While on a tour of the Paris Saint-Germain grounds, the two had a second to speak and interact. This is the first time the pair has met, both seemingly excited for the opportunity. In a photo posted by Neymar on his Instagram page, they can be seen smiling and holding up a jersey:
The jersey in question was a custom PSG jersey bearing the name “Ye” across the back. Neymar has a noted respect for Kanye’s contributions to the fashion and music world, opting to say “Nice to meet u legend” as his caption.
Neymar isn’t the only famous athlete seen with Kanye since the start of 2022. All-Star NFL Wide receiver Antonio Brown has been in proximity to Kanye on a number of occasions in recent weeks, either chilling in the studio or wearing prototype Yeezy boots elsewhere. Kanye is known to have an appreciation for sports as a whole, and released a Kobe Bryant tribute entitled “24” on his Donda album.
We can only wonder what other news will come from Fashion Week in Paris 2022.
