Neymar and Paris, a love story that will have known sups and downs for almost 6 years. Welcomed like a true rock star in the summer of 2017 from FC Barcelona, the Brazilian is still the most expensive player in the history of football. It is in fact no less than 222 million euros which had been disbursed at the time by the leaders of PSG to bring in the Auriverde star.
The Brazilian's career was then a succession of moments of grace, but also immense disillusionment. The relationship between the player and the fans of the capital was even very tense at times. However, the Brazilian seems to have benefited from his stay in the French capital. As proof, he named his daughter Mavie (My life) and he comes back regularly in France.
Neymar visiting Paris
Since his departure from PSG, Neymar joined the very rich Saudi Pro League. A major injury kept him from playing for almost a year. He took the opportunity to become a father a second time. With his partner Bruna Biancardi, they indeed welcomed their little girl. Far from being frightened by the prospect of being a father of a large family, the couple will soon welcome a second little girl. For his part, the player is also the father of two other children.
Besides this rather joyful news, the player took advantage of the end-of-year holidays to travel. He was in Dubai for New Year's Eve where he ran into an old acquaintance. He actually found himself in the same nightclub as a certain Marco Verratti, his former teammate at PSG. Following this, the Brazilian number 10 passed through Paris, where he stopped to a little dance at the foot of the famous iron lady. The opportunity for him to remember his six years spent at PSG probably.
A thwarted love story with the capital
Neymar was a star of world football from the moment he emerged for Santos when he was barely 17 years old. His meteoric rise to the top was punctuated by moments of pure genius. However, the player's volcanic character has also played many tricks on him. As talented as he was provocative, he annoyed as much as he amazed the fans of all the clubs he played for. First among these, PSG fans have mixed memories of his stay in the capital. The player looked back on his Parisian years at the microphone of RMC.
“My experience at PSG was good and bad. Very good, because at the football level, I think I was at the peak of my career.and bad, because I was injured for a long time and often, I think I didn't even finish a season, so there was obviously sadness. But I won't forget the very good moments like the Champions League final. (…) The fans were great to me during my timeI wrote my story in L1, I am proud of it.” Hoping to see the player back at his best as quickly as possible.
