Bieber plays soccer with Neymar at Barcelona’s training camp

BARCELONA, Spain – Justin Bieber spent the day before one of his concerts in Spain playing soccer with Neymar at Barcelona’s training camp.

The pop singer visited the team’s training centre on Monday and met with the Brazilian forward and some other players of the Catalan club.

Wearing soccer boots, shorts and an orange shirt, the 22-year-old Bieber played one-on-one against Neymar and took some penalty kicks with Rafinha as the goalkeeper. He later put on some gloves and also showed his goalkeeping skills.

Barcelona posted a photo of Bieber inside the team’s training facility alongside Neymar, Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi.

The singer had already visited the team in 2011.

Bieber will perform in Barcelona on Tuesday as part of his “Purpose World Tour.”

He will play in Madrid on Wednesday.
