Carlos Tevez returned to his roots at Boca Juniors in the summer and it appears the Argentina ace is keen on mingling with the Buenos Aires locals.
Tevez, who was paraded in front of 40,000 Boca fans when he returned to his boyhood club in July, has been spotted playing cards in the capital.
The 31-year-old wore a white hooded jumper and posed for a snap alongside a large group of men. The picture was posted on the Twitter feed of BreatheSport.

Tevez played the full 90 minutes for Boca on the weekend but was unable to help them avoid a 3-1 defeat
Former Juventus star Tevez broke his nose while on international duty with Argentina and the forward's injuries were noticeable in the snap.
Tevez's right eye was bruised after suffering the injury when he clashed with Paraguay defender Victor Caceres in last week's World Cup 2018 qualifier.
Tevez was unable to help his side beat Racing Club in their league clash at the weekend.
Boca missed a chance to seal the Argentine league title on Sunday after losing 3-1 away to Racing in a bad-tempered match that saw two Boca players sent off and another four booked.
Three points would have given Boca an unassailable eight-point lead over Rosario Central with two games to go but the capital club were outplayed by the home side.
'We need to grow in these games and not play like this - Racing were the better team. The championship is within our grasp, but we need to grow at a few little things.'

Last month, former Manchester United and City striker Tevez was involved in a horror leg-breaking challenge which left Ezequiel Ham hospitalised.
Ham, 21, was left in agony when he collided with Tevez during the 3-0 Primera Division victory for Boca with graphic images of the foul making headlines worldwide.
But it seems there were no hard feelings from the Argentinos man, after he posed for a photo with Tevez at his bedside.

Tevez had been quick to apologise after finding out the severity of Ham's injury following his late challenge.
'It makes me angry because I went for the ball, it was neither malicious nor my intention to hurt him. The touch told me I'd done something wrong,' Tevez said after the game.
'I'm sad because I didn't want to do anything bad to him. I've never hurt anyone, this is my first time. Now I'm going to see him and apologise, as I should do.'
Tevez's awful challenge left Ham in some distress, breaking his right leg and seeing him leave on a stretcher
