Football superstar Neymar has hit back at fat-shamers by showing off his ripped abs. He wants his Brazil fans to respect him.


According to The Sun, the Paris Saint-Germain star was subjected to criticism during Selecao’s 1-0 win over Chile last week when he was accused of being overweight.

Neymar was criticised for being out of shape after shirtless pictures of him emerged during the international break. 

Recently, Neymar scored a goal and produced an assist in Brazil’s 2-0 World Cup qualifying victory over Peru.

Post the win against Peru, Neymar said: “I don’t know what more I need to do in this shirt for the fans to respect Neymar. This isn’t normal.”

Taking a dig at fat-shamers, Neymar tweeted the above picture on Friday and wrote: “Chubby is ON [fire emoji].”
