Watch Barcelona-PSG on TV 2 Play Tuesday from 20!
On Tuesday, Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain meet for the second leg in the Champions League.
And before Neymar’s old clubs meet, comes The Team with startling revelations about the Brazilian.
According to anonymous sources inside PSG, Neymar turned up to training drunk towards the end of his time in Paris.
– If it is true, it is completely unreal, says TV 2’s football expert Simen Stamsø-Møller.
– That is a serious misuse of one’s own talent. There has been a lot of damage, and what is real and what is not is not good to say. After Barcelona, he has ruined a lot for himself. It’s a shame and a shame.
Stamsø-Møller describes Neymar as a mixture of Ronaldinho and Thierry Henry, a player blessed by God.
– Nevertheless, you are left with few good memories of him. It’s sad, says the TV 2 expert about the 31-year-old who now plays for Al-Hilal in Saudi Arabia.
Stamsø-Møller points out that Neymar was the man who was supposed to lift PSG to the top when he became the world‘s most expensive footballer in 2017. But the two-billionaire man never reached the great heights in Paris.
– After Barcelona, Neymar is the most wasted talent I have seen. I thought he would end up with both golden balls and WC gold, but it looks difficult now.
Isfront med Mbappé
L’Équipe also writes about a turbulent relationship between Neymar and Kylian Mbappé.
– It is not surprising at all, says Stamsø-Møller, and elaborates:
– They are built up to be something bigger than they actually are. There has been too much “hype” and it does something to their heads. In that case, it could actually be the case that a rivalry arises, because there is so much talk about it.

A PSG employee claims that the Frenchman lost respect for the Brazilian. Neymar is said to have been angry that PSG gave Mbappé control of the club’s project.
– You couldn’t get a better symbol that the PSG project has not succeeded than Neymar. Mbappé should not be responsible for that, he has mostly delivered, says Stamsø-Møller.
– It’s an incredible shame that it turned out like that between them, but almost inevitable when the team didn’t get what they wanted, to win the Champions League.
– I understand that it is difficult for Mbappé to accept the attitudes of Neymar. As a rule, Mbappé has always been serious. Although he can sin, he too, but being a little grumpy is something different from coming to training drunk.
Therefore, the expert predicts show
The France star is unlikely to appear at training under the influence of alcohol before the quarter-final return against Barcelona in the Champions League.
PSG must turn around 2-3 to reach the semi-finals.
– PSG have played better football than they delivered against Barcelona, so Barca must not think that this is over. This will be a battle all the way in. It will be a show, predicts Stamsø-Møller.
– Barcelona have had some big hits at home this season. The Barca shirt can be burdensome too. So it’s a great starting point for the return.
