On Sunday evening, Layvin Kurzawa became the latest victim of the 'Drake Curse' following Paris Saint-Germain's shock thrashing at the hands of Lille.
The full back joined a long list of sports stars that have gone on to lose their next game after getting a selfie or picture with Canadian rapper Drake.
The PSG defender was a part of the side that emphatically lost 5-1 to Lille – the club's heaviest league defeat in 19 years.
And the Serie A club's Twitter account announced the tongue-in-cheek news the day after by stating that no Roma player would be allowed to have a selfie with the singer due to the superstition that they will also be cursed.
It's wasn't the first time a sports star has met the famous singer and then suffered defeat in their next game in the past couple of months.
Arsenal forward Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang fell victim after posing for a photo with the Canadian who was holding his Arsenal shirt on April 2.
The Gunners would go on to lose to Everton 1-0 at Goodison Park the following Sunday.
Paul Pogba is also another huge name that is on the list that has suffered from the supposed curse.
The Frenchman smiled for a picture with Drake after a performance at the Manchester Arena on March 11 while Manchester United team-mates Marcus Rashford and Jesse Lingard watched from a box.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men would then be dumped out of the FA Cup by Wolves on March 16 – a game Pogba played in.
