• WHAT NEYMAR SAID

  The 32-year-old shared an image of an aircraft that carried food relief to Brazil as he wrote in the caption, "I don't like and don't like to post everything I do or help, because who does it .. do it from the heart, not from the commitment. So, this post is to encourage more people to help. I'd like to thank the pilots of my aircraft and everyone involved. I'm here from afar praying that everything goes back to normal… My father is taking care of me and giving all the help possible."
