PL Stars Eric Dier And Paul Pogba Pop Up In Miami For NBA Playoffs

The NBA has become one of the preferred destinations for footballers to spend their downtime. With the season now concluded, many footballers have jetted off to the States, just in time for the NBA playoffs. 

The FTX Arena in Miami played host to numerous Footy stars, who tuned in to watch the Miami Heat take on the Celtics in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals. 

As seen in these pictures, in attendance were Manchester United star Paul Pogba, alongside French compatriots Aurelien Tchouameni and Jules Kounde. 

The Monaco midfielder and Sevilla centre back are both seeking new clubs according to reports, perhaps their future destinations are set to change soon. 

Additionally, Tottenham Hotspur trio Japhet Tanganga, Eric Dier and Brandon Austin were also present. 

They linked up with fellow footballer Romeo Beckham, who currently plays as a forward for Inter Miami II. Sporting a Heat jersey, Beckham clearly supported the home side. 

While it’s unclear where the other’s allegiances lie, he certainly would’ve been disappointed as Miami lost 93-80.

With plenty of vacation time remaining for footballers before pre-season tours kick in, fans will certainly receive even more pictures of their favourite stars seated Courtside.
