It seems (again, IT SEEMS) like the end of the Neymar soap opera is near. The Brazilian is set to miss Paris Saint-Germain’s Ligue 1 opener, Sunday against Nimes.
According to PSG manager Thomas Tuchel, it’s stricly a physical issue:
“My job is to be the manager. He’s in an individual phase of training, in and out of sessions with the group. He’s still a little injured. He took a knock [Saturday] and hasn’t completed a week of training yet.”
But PSG sporting director Leonard has given us the real reason: negotiations for Neymar’s departure are finally moving to a possible conclusion.
