Areola admits concerns over Neymar ahead of PSG-Madrid clash

Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper Alphonse Areola said he is worried about Neymar after the Brazilian star was carried off the pitch on a stretcher in Le Classique.

Ligue 1 leaders PSG cruised to a 3-0 victory at home to rivals Marseille but the win was overshadowed by an ankle injury to Neymar on Sunday.

Neymar rolled his right ankle and looked to be in tears as he was aided off the ground at Parc des Princes, in a blow before Real Madrid's visit to the French capital for the second leg of their last-16 Champions League encounter on March 6.
