Neymar left out of PSG squad
By Boluwatife Ezekiel Olaleye
Neymar has reportedly been left out of Paris Saint-Germain’s travelling squad for the trip to Montpellier tomorrow.
The world-record signing became involved in an on-pitch dispute with teammate Edinson Cavani during last weekend’s win over Lyon as the pair argued over who should take a penalty.
The row continued in the dressing room, with teammates allegedly keeping the players apart, and the Brazilian is then said to have demanded that Cavani be sold when the transfer window reopens.

According to RMC Sport, Neymar has now been dropped from the squad for the Montpellier game due to “a minor foot injury”, despite being pictured in training on Thursday.
The former Barcelona striker is expected to be fit in time for PSG’s following game, a home encounter with Bayern Munich in the Champions League on Wednesday night.
