EXTRA TIME: Watch Senegalese artist draw Neymar with his boot and Mane with a ball

An artist from Senegal, known as Boubou, has gained the attention of Neymar after painting the Brazilian player using a boot.

Neymar posted a Tweet of Boubou painting him, and you can watch it below.

There is another amazing football artwork by this Dakar-based artist who brilliantly dribbles with a football in such a way to paint his countryman Sadio Mane.

Boubou's talent doesn't stop there, he has painted basketball star LeBron James, while bouncing a ball around the canvas.

We also show him using the shape of Africa to paint the late South African president Nelson Mandela.
