Watch: Former Manchester United star dazzles with Rema’s Calm Down song

Football players, social media users, and music fans have all shared flicks of themselves dancing to Rema’s song Calm Down

Former French international Patrice Evra was spotted dancing to the tune of a song performed by Nigerian artiste, Rema, Soccernet.ng reports.

Divine Ikubor, better known by his stage name Rema, has become a household name owing to his lovely songs that have been played during World Cup events and even by certain football teams on their social media pages.

Evra, who recently travelled to Nigeria to empower young people via sports and education, has continued to show his affection for Nigerian artistes like Burna Boy, and now Rema, a 23-year-old musician, as he stopped by a band in Monaco to sing Calm Down, which the Dumebi crooner later included Selena Gomez in.

The former Juventus player, who is a major admirer of the song by the Nigerian singer, needed to pose to be featured in the track.

The Frenchman was seen dancing and singing along to the song in a video that he shared on TkTok.

Rema’s Calm Down has topped charts all around the globe and has also made a splash on the TikTok platforms.

Evra, meanwhile, is anticipated to travel to Africa this year to carry on his educational and football-related missionary work among young people.
