“I am excited to start this next chapter with PokerStars.net, and we are already collaborating on a number of key areas. Music is a real passion of mine, so that was first on the list, but there is much more to come. I am excited for you to see what else we have in store.”

Martin Nieri, global director of brand and creative at PokerStars.net, added: “Neymar Jr. is not just a globally recognised sports star, he is also a proven creative with a deep interest in the culture around him.”

“This new role marks the start of something exciting for the PokerStars.net community, a merging of two worlds, where poker meets culture. In a first for the industry, together we’ll be creating moments to truly shake up poker and rewarding those who get involved in all that’s to come.”

Neymar re-joined PokerStars in December 2020 as part of the brand’s ‘All In’ campaign, and was described by the operator as a “perfect fit” for its brand.
