“What I want most is to play with Messi again”

Although FC Barcelona beat Ferencvaros on Wednesday (0-3) showing show, enthusiasm and effectiveness, and that during the European match there were other victories and also striking results, it ended up being Neymar Jr the great protagonist of the evening with his post-match statements, after Manchester United-PSG (1-3) at Old Trafford.

Euphoric for the victory against the ‘red devils’, for having scored and having the qualification for the round of 16 practically in hand, the Brazilian champion did not bite his tongue and assured in the statements to ‘ESPN Argentina’ that he wants to play Leo Messiand who hopes it will happen next year. “I want to play with him again. What I want most is to have fun with him on the pitch again “, released the former of Barça.

And he dared to set a date for the meeting with the Rosary. “Next year we have to do it”he said with a smile. The reporter, seeing that ‘Ney’ was talkative and animated, continued to give him a ball asking him where he would place Leo Messi in a hypothetical Paris Saint-Germain formation. “I don’t care, I’d put it in my place, I’m going out”, answered the “10” between laughter.

Anyhow, Neymar Jr never said anything about which team he wanted to play with Messi. At PSG or at Barça? Maybe Manchester City, in a very hypothetical case? Be that as it may, it’s no secret that Neymar Jr would like to wear the Barça shirt again, something he was about to achieve two summers ago.

In the end the transfer did not happen, although it is not excluded that it may occur in the near future. In fact, the letter from ‘Ney’ has already been announced by some of the candidates who will stand in the elections on January 24 in Can Barça, like Emili Rousaud.

¿Neymar at Barça or Messi at PSG?

Neymar Jr has an ongoing contract with PSG until 2022, although it was speculated in French lands that the French team was negotiating its renewal. Currently the signature has not been made and his future remains in the air. Leo Messi, for his part, closes his relationship with Barça on 30 June and it will be necessary to see what happens. The Argentine was very clear that he wanted to leave this summer, but was eventually forced by Bartomeu.

Candidates such as Laporta and Víctor Font, the first favorites today in the presidential elections, have already ensured this great goal in some of their “meetings” It will be to convince ‘La Pulga’ to stay at Barça. With siren songs like that of Neymar Jr, who may be trying to lure him to PSG in a veiled way, it will be difficult. Although it might be easier for the Brazilian to return to Camp Nou.
