The biggest concern at PSG is Kylian Mbappe, a player who resigned to become the highest-paid athlete in the world but who does not have a good relationship with another of the club’s stars in, Neymar.
PSG have been surprised by Brazilian’s message
There seems to be a sense of calm in Paris as Christophe Galtier’s PSG are starting to get back on track, and all the fans are looking forward to a perfect season. That would be, of course, winning Ligue 1, which is always a must, and finally winning the Champions League. The coach has managed to balance the egos in the dressing room and keep everyone generally happy. The biggest concern at PSG is Kylian Mbappe, a player who resigned to become the highest-paid athlete in the world but who does not have a good relationship with another of the club’s stars in, Neymar.
This is not something that has been hidden but rather has been publicized, such as in their conflict over who would take penalties. However, Neymar has reached out to the French star with some astonishing statements that could mark a new chapter in the French side’s history.
Playing with Lionel Messi and Kylian is a huge pleasure for Neymar
The Brazilian focused on winning the World Cup with Brazil, gave an interview to The Telegraph, in which he was asked about PSG and his relationship with Mbappe. “Kylian is a young player who’s been growing and showing his potential and still has a lot to grow,” the Brazilian said. “It’s always great to play alongside the greats; I’ve always preferred that because the chances of winning are higher. Playing with Lionel Messi and Kylian is a huge pleasure. They’re two greats, with Messi long considered the best in the world.” Coming from the Brazilian, these words – which might have surprised some – seem sincere, but we will have to wait and see if there is a response from the Frenchman, who is also have focused on the World Cup in Qatar.
The Brazilian was also asked about the Qatar 2022 World Cup, in which he believes a final showdown with Argentina is on the cards. “We don’t discuss it very much, but sometimes we joke about crossing paths with each other in the final,” Neymar added. “I tell Messi that I’ll be champion and win against him, and we have a good laugh.” Brazil, Argentina and France are the favourites to win the World Cup, so PSG have their three stars in with a chance of winning. Whether or not that creates an odd dynamic is something that will have to wait until after the tournament.
