In an interview in Brazil published this Sunday, Neymar came to the defense of Lionel Messi while scratching PSG, with whom he says he lived “hell” before his departure for Saudi Arabia.
Currently on vacation before resuming with Al-Hilal, Neymar takes out the sulfateuse. In an interview published this Sunday by O Globo – and which seems to have been filmed several weeks ago, before his departure from Paris – the Brazilian does not spare PSG. Asked about the Lionel Messi case, who left for MLS, the 31-year-old spoke about their common adventure in the capital.
“I was very happy for him, for his season, even if he knew everything. He went to heaven with Argentina, he went through hell in Paris, we went through hell, him and me, “We’re doing our best, we’re champions, we’re trying to write history… that’s why he and I were playing together again, to write history. But Unfortunately, we did not succeed.”

“Those who know him know that he is a guy who trains, who fights”
Very happy with the coronation of the Argentinian, who “deserved to end his career” with the World Cup in his hands, Neymar believes that “Messi did not deserve to leave like that” from PSG. “For all he is, what he’s done…those who know him know he’s a guy who trains, who fights. If he loses, he’s angry. I think that he was accused unjustly”, concludes the former number 10 in Paris.
Close since their adventure in Barcelona, the two men failed to bring the Champions League back to Paris, as was the case in 2015 in Catalonia. In two seasons, they have played 45 games together, with the Brazilian missing numerous encounters through injury. At the heart of the “MNM” with Kylian Mbappé, Messi scored four goals on a service from Neymar, while the new Al-Hilal player scored seven times on an assist for the seven-time Ballon d’Or. Their last joint match dates back to February 19 against Lille (4-3), when Ney was out injured, hit in the ankle.
