Two weeks ago, Neymar (31) joined Al-Hilal from Paris Saint-Germain in Saudi Arabia for a fee of €90m. While the transfer surprised many, Markus Babbel (50) is happy about it. For a special reason.
Babbel leathers against Neymar!
Babbel in “Blick Kick”: “I have a problem with it when the 21-year-olds (Gabri Veiga; ed.) go down there. Thank god Neymar, he’s finally off the scene. Thank God I don’t have to look at the whining anymore, I’m really glad.”

Former national player Paul Breitner agrees. He also scolded Neymar just a few days ago, saying: “Thank you dear Saudis for buying Mr. Neymar. In the last ten years, he was one of the most left-wing footballers under the sun.” Breitner also called Neymar one “of the greatest actors, who only marks, only acts – lousy, a left-wing bacillary. We don’t have to endure that anymore.”
Babbel, who has already coached Stuttgart, Hertha and Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga, also admitted in an interview that he understood some of the changes. The ex-Bundesliga coach: “I’m not a moralizer. When you get dumped with money like that, everyone has to question themselves: Would I take it? Wouldn’t I accept it? I can understand anyone going down there. Whether I approve of it is another story.”
Neymar played for PSG from 2017 to 2023. After moving to Saudi Arabia, he said: “I’m here to help the league grow.”

And: “There are sums that are not normal. You sign a two- or three-year contract and then even your next generations are secured.” What he means: Ronaldo (Al-Nassr) and Benzema (Al-Hilal) collect 200 million euros a year, N’Golo Kanté (Ittihad) gets 100 million
However, due to the transfer flow into the desert, Babbel actually also sees a perspective for Europe. Which? Babbel: “It is again a great opportunity for other leagues to bring young talents up again.”
