«My experience at PSG was good and bad. Very good, because in football terms, 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 definitely sadnessregretted the Al-Hilal player. But I will not forget the very good moments like the Champions League final (in 2020), we could have won it but a final is decided on details. Otherwise, playing in Ligue 1 was a very good experience, the fans were great with me during my time, I wrote my story in L1, I'm proud of it, but it's over and I now have to focus on Al-Hilal.»

The management of PSG takes it for its rank

But football is thankless, and we are more likely to remember the negative, rather than the positive. It is also for this reason that Neymar's story with Paris ended backwards, with a management which at the time had forced it to pack up, and resentful supporters, who had gone as far as 'to demonstrate their discontent in front of the player's house. An episode that he is still struggling to digest. “The first year in Paris was wonderful, I was very well received by the fans, but the last two or three were not the same, it wasn't really fair the way I was treated», he recalls.

Our relationship was no longer respectful, whereas I always respected them… It was really a complicated situation. I was sad about the way I was treated in the endhe added, before addressing a few tackles to his management at the time. I respect PSG and I will always support them so that they have the best possible results. I have no resentment towards the club, I just have a bit of resentment towards people who manage the club and some supporters. My relationship with the supporters is unfortunately one of the sad moments. It's in the past and I have a clear conscience about it.” The message got through.
