IShowSpeed was very excited to meet Neymar after PSG faced Al Nassr

Speed gets himself about a lot and his latest dalliance with a footballer has seen him meet PSG star Neymar.

Neymar has become the latest football star to meet a very excitable iShowSpeed, following Paris Saint-Germain's pre-season friendly with Al Nassr.

No one has turned the art of being a football fan into a profession in the same way that Speed has managed in the past nine months or so.

The American has become a huge hit on social media especially due to his love for Cristiano Ronaldo and his 'interesting' take on the Siuuu goal celebration.

Speed was desperate to track down the five time Ballon d'Or winner and kept failing at the end of Ronaldo's time at Manchester United, before eventually managing it last month, when his idol was playing for Portugal.

The 18-year-old, real name Darren Watkins Jr, got the chance to see his hero play for Saudi Arabia Pro League side Al Nassr on Tuesday as they took on PSG.

Despite not getting on the pitch Neymar was on the bench for the Ligue 1 side and afterwards shared a selfie and a dance with Speed, as you can see in the video below.

It's not been a particularly happy few months for the former Barcelona star who has been injured for a while and not played since February.

Fans of the Ligue 1 champions then marched outside his house and called on him to 'get lost' towards the end of last season.

There has been talk that the club are desperate to sell him this summer, with some Premier League clubs having previously been linked.

However his huge wages have meant that the club have struggled to get him out of the Parc des Princes, even with the money sloshing around the Saudi Pro League now.

Off the pitch life also isn't too good for the 31-year-old either, who's had to pay £2.6 million to Brazilian authorities because of his house.

Neymar didn't get on the pitch as his side drew 0-0 with Ronaldo's current side, in a match that Kylian Mbappe missed after being left at home for the tour.

Speed has been a pretty busy boy this week as he was also in attendance to see Lionel Messi's first game in America for Inter Miami.

The Ronaldo fanboy sold out in favour of MLS' newest star as he claimed he would support Messi if he managed to bury the game winning free kick just seconds before it was taken.
