End clap between Paris Saint-Germain and Neymar. Arrived in the summer of 2017 in the French capital, the Brazilian striker will never have succeeded in winning over time, also due to a succession of injuries. Therefore, the 31-year-old accepted the challenge offered by Al-Hilal. His transfer caused a lot of noise in the sports news, especially when his salary and contractual benefits with the Saudi club were revealed. However, the reasons that led the Brazilian star to leave the Parc des Princes seem quite different.
According to Gabriel, former Brazilian defender of Grêmio and also very good friend of Neymar, the latter would have chosen this surprising destination in order to devote more time to his family life. “What he told me was this: ‘I’m happy, I’m going to raise my daughter here, I’m going to live some time with my family here in Saudi Arabia, and then I’ll see what happens. .” There, he will stay away from all this pressure, from all this. God willing, he will live two years with his family, win victories and break records while continuing to enchant the world of football. That’s what we talked about in our last conversation.”said the former Brazilian right-back to ESPNcomments reported by UOL.
