Neymar and Marco Verratti took advantage of their second day off to attend the Monte-Carlo tournament. And the two PSG players were able to meet, this Monday, Novak Djokovic with whom they had a juggling competition.
The two Parisian stars did not go unnoticed in the stands of the Masters 1000. Invited by Replay, of which Neymar is the muse and which is also a sponsor of the tournament, the Brazilian and the Italian notably attended the match between the French Arthur Rinderknech , present for the first time on the Rock, and the Italian Fabio Fognini, which resulted in the victory of the Transalpin, winner of the event in 2019, in three rounds.
They also animated the aisles in the company of the Serbian world n°1 by organizing a small ball juggling contest. And if the two footballers, however far from being dressed with adequate outfits, were very comfortable, Novak Djokovic, in shorts and sneakers, was a little more in difficulty. And after a few fairly well-controlled exchanges, the Serb ended up dropping the big yellow ball that acted as a ball.

But that in no way spoiled his good mood. Quite the contrary. Djokovic, who has not played since the Dubai tournament, was able to enjoy a moment of relaxation before his entry into the second round on Tuesday against the Spaniard Davidovich Fokina. For their part, Neymar and Marco Verratti are expected to resume PSG training to prepare for the Classic against OM, scheduled for Sunday evening at the Parc des Princes.
