Since his debut at PSG, Joao Neves has won everyone’s approval. Recruited for 70 million euros from Benfica, the young 19-year-old Portuguese midfielder has put in a string of big performances. Author of four assists in as many matches, the Parisian number 87 is already an undisputed starter in the eyes of Luis Enrique. The pocket midfielder is also unanimous among his teammates.
Present at a press conference this Tuesday on the eve of facing Girona for the first day of the Champions League, Marquinhos said all the good things he thought of the Portuguese international: “he is a monster, he quickly adapted to the game, to the team. We have a philosophy that is not totally simple and easy. He plays in a very important position in midfield but he is already ready from the first match at the level he showed us. Even if he is very young, he is mature, arrived ready.»
