While his national side is doing its business in the South American World Cup qualifiers, Neymar has been spending time partying up at a samba school in Rio de Janeiro.
The Brazilian, who is still serving an international ban after the suspension he picked up at the Copa America, was seen at the headquarters of Grande Rio, one of the traditional dancing schools in Rio de Janeiro, on the night the song to be sung by the school's dancers at the 2016 Rio Carnival was chosen.
Neymar was given the job of crowning this year's queen of the school, soap opera actress Paloma Bernardi.
Next year's parade will take place in Santos, the city whose famous club was once the football home of the legendary Pele, as well as Neymar before he signed for Barcelona.
Do you think Neymar should be spending his time off trying to better his game instead?
