Neymar Blames Mbappé's Jealousy for PSG’s Failure with Messi
In a recent podcast, Neymar revealed that Kylian Mbappé’s jealousy over his relationship with Lionel Messi contributed to the breakdown of PSG's superstar trio. Neymar, who left PSG for Al-Hilal in 2023, said that while he initially had a good relationship with Mbappé, things changed when Messi joined the club in 2021. Neymar suggested Mbappé didn’t want to share him with Messi, leading to clashes of egos and a lack of team chemistry.
Neymar also emphasized that individual brilliance wasn’t enough to succeed, highlighting the need for teamwork and support from teammates. He believes that without mutual cooperation, the trio’s potential was never fully realized.
On his future, Neymar refrained from giving specifics amid rumors of a possible return to Brazil or a move to Major League Soccer, stating that while he’s content in Saudi Arabia, his situation could change quickly.
