Neymar’s private jet, with the PSG and Brazil star on board, had to make an emergency landing due to a malfunctioning windshield wiper.
Neymar, his girlfriend Bruna Biancardi, and his sister Rafaella Santos were all aboard the jet as they returned from a holiday in the United States Tuesday morning, when the pilot decided that repairs were needed to safely fly any further.
That meant an emergency landing in Boa Vista, Brazil, where the jet will be repaired. In a statement from Neymar’s agency NR Sports published on Instagram, the problem was described as “small,” and that everyone aboard the jet was safe and sound.
In Boa Vista, a rather bemused Neymar took a moment to pose for selfies with airport employees.

According to NR Sports, the problem will be repaired in Boa Vista before the journey back to Sao Paulo is finished. For his part, Neymar posted a message Tuesday afternoon to show that all was well:
