Paris Saint-Germain star Neymar's broken his silence about the rumours suggesting he could be at Real Madrid next season.
Neymar did not deny the reports, but he didn't ratify them, either. His message was ambiguous as he spoke to Canal+ after PSG's 9-0 win over Guingamp in the French league.
Asked about the links with Madrid, unlike on previous occasions, when's he's labelled it 'fake news,' Neymar said "there's always speculation about me. Since I have been a professional footballer, they've always talked about me leaving for other clubs, but there's nothing concrete. As soon as there's anything certain, you can be sure that I will speak with everyone."
Neymar also spoke about his relationship with PSG's German coach Thomas Tuchel, saying he has a relationship "of friendship but also mutual respect."
The Brazilian added: "I respect him as a manager, but when you have to speak with him with sincerity, you do it and there are no problems. Since the first team we spoke, I've had great affection for him. When you have so much confidence with your manager, you give everything on the pitch. I will do everything possible to win for him."

Neymar dribbling is superb, he's a magician like Ronaldinho interms of dribbling

To be frank Neymar is the one of the best players in the world and he deserves better but how? He just needs to establish himself somewhere else, a league that is competitive and ranked higher than ligue1.
