Brazilian star Neymar TPrevious statements to fellow Argentine Lionel Messi Regarding the “difficulty” of their time at the French club Paris Saint-Germain, he said that they “lived through hell.”
The international striker, who transferred to Al Hilal Saudi Arabia in a deal estimated at 100 million euros, indicated that he was “very happy” that Messi, who in turn moved to American Inter Miami in June, won the FIFA World Cup in Qatar in late 2022.
However, he revealed, in an interview with the Brazilian channel Globo, that Messi (36 years), the best player in the world seven times, who carried the colors of Saint-Germain for two years since 2021, “tested the other side of the medal.”
“He knew heaven with Argentina, he won everything in recent years, and with Paris he lived hell, he and I lived hell,” said Neymar, 31, who played alongside Messi for four years with Barcelona, Spain, before they met again at the Qatari-owned Paris Saint-Germain club.
In six seasons with Paris Saint-Germain, Ney won the French League title five times with Paris Saint-Germain without him or Messi succeeding in leading him to the Champions League title. He and Messi suffered during their career in the French capital from the boos of local fans aspiring to provide more of the brilliant duo.
And the former Santos player, who has suffered many injuries in recent years, added, “We were angry because we were not there for this matter, but rather to give our best, to be champions. That is why we came back and played together. We came together to write history … Unfortunately, we did not succeed.” .
Despite the financial temptations and the enormous capabilities provided by the Qatari owners to Paris Saint-Germain, the latter did not loosen its knot by winning the Champions League title, and its most prominent result was reaching the 2020 final when it lost to Bayern Munich with the goal of its former player, Kingsley Coman.
