Neymar latest player to be 'targeted by ISIS'

Paris Saint-Germain forward Neymar is the latest football-related figure to have seemingly been targeted by jihadist militant group ISIS.

Images emerged earlier this week showing former Barcelona teammate Lionel Messi photoshopped crying behind bars, while France boss Didier Deschamps was mocked up with a gun to his head.

Messi has again been used in the latest propaganda material, appearing to have been executed while Neymar kneels alongside him with his hands tied behind his back.

In a separate poster, an armed jihadist is edited onto the backdrop of the World Cup logo, accompanied by the words "wait for us" in Arabic.
