I Want To Play With Lionel Messi – Neymar
Paris Saint-Germain forward Neymar dropped a Lionel Messi bombshell after his side’s win against Manchester United by insisting he plans on playing with the Barcelona superstar next season.
Neymar scored twice at Old Trafford in his side’s 3-1 win, which puts them within touching distance of the last-16 of the Champions League.
The Brazil international joined PSG from Barcelona in a £199.5million deal in 2017, making him the most expensive player of all-time. However, he has threatened to leave on at least two occasions and he’s believed to be keen on a return to the Camp Nou.
Messi’s desire to leave the club last summer has complicated matters somewhat, opening up the possibility that the Argentine could actually join Neymar in the French capital rather than the other way around.
The Catalans just about managed to hold onto Messi last summer, despite the Argentine’s transfer request. Messi is out of contract at the end of the season and he’s free to speak to non-Spanish clubs from January 1st.
However, despite being delighted with his side’s win at the Theatre of Dreams, Neymar made it clear that he wants to play with the Argentine again next season.
