On May 29, during a pre-match interview ahead of the friendly between Santos and RB Leipzig, Neymar spoke to Sky Germany and made headlines with his remarks about two rising German stars: Florian Wirtz and Jamal Musiala.
When asked:
“Do you know Florian Wirtz from Germany?”
Neymar replied:
“No, I don’t.”
But when asked about Musiala, he was full of praise:
“Jamal Musiala? Yes, I know him. He’s an excellent player, a genius. I think he will become one of the greatest players in the future.”

I believe musiala will become one of the greatest players ever, the whole Bayern team for the next 5-7 years are literally building their club around him that's why Bayern lost Vs inter musiala simply wasn't there

Neymar is busy being Neymar. That's why he doesn't know Wirtz. A player Man City, RM and Liverpool are fighting to land. Neymar should retire and stick to partying or something...
