Neymar regrets leaving Barcelona
By Boluwatife Ezekiel Olaleye
Neymar regrets his world record Paris Saint-Germain move and misses Barcelona, according to reports in Spain.
The Brazilian stunned the football world in the summer by leaving La Liga giants for the French capital in a blockbuster €222million deal.
But the 25-year-old has endured a mixed start to life at the Ligue 1 outfit. Neymar has scored 10 goals in 11 games but also fell out with strike partner Edinson Cavani.
Neymar was sent off in his most recent appearance for PSG, and now reports are suggesting he is also unhappy with boss Unai Emery’s tactics.
Catalan TV station La Porteria tweeted: “La Porteria understands that the Brazilian regrets having left Barça and misses his life in Barcelona.
“The player is unhappy with Emery and his methods. The player’s environment does not feel comfortable in Paris either.”
The PSG manager recently warned Neymar not to fall into the trap of provocation during games.
“He’s an intelligent player, conscious of all that he suffers,” said Emery. “Last Sunday will teach him a lesson.
“Marseille players pushed him, fouled him. It’s important referees control that. But he should not fall victim to the provocation, although I understand players are humans.”
