Las Vegas

After a long, mixed 2014-15 campaign in which he won the treble with club side Barcelona before enduring disappointment in the Copa America with Brazil, Neymar is currently enjoying blowing off some steam with friends in Las Vegas.

And having already gone to the UFC 189 fight between Conor McGregor and Chad Mendes in the Nevada desert, on Monday Neymar posted a selfie picture of himself with American basketball legend Michael Jordan.

Neymar captioned the Instagram picture, 'THE GREATEST !!! Dream come true, what an honour to meet this guy' and is clearly a fan of Jordan's sport having posted another photo one day earlier alongside current NBA players Trevor Ariza and James Harden.

Neymar has been as prolific on social media as he was scoring goals on the pitch last season, and in another selfie seemed disappointed at not being able to see his injured Brazilian compatriot Jose Aldo take on McGregor in the UFC 189, settling for his replacement Mendes, who lost out to the Irishman.
