Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) head coach Christophe Galtier has reportedly chalked out plans to accommodate out-of-favor star Neymar with forwards Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe next season.
Neymar, who has three years left on his current deal, has been linked with a move away from Paris this summer (via ESPN). With injuries plaguing him season-after-season, his importance at the club has diminished over time. Earlier, AS reported that PSG are willing to sell the 30-year-old for a cut-price fee of โฌ90 million.
But according to Le Parisien (via Culture PSG), Galtier has identified 3-5-2 as the go-to formation for the upcoming campaign. Neymar is expected to be deployed "in support of the attacking duo Mbappe-Messi next season," shouldering the burden of creativity in the final third.
The report further stated that a playmaker role for the attacker will also appease Brazil head coach Tite. The tactician recently declared that Neymar is at his best when he is at the center of any attacking unit. He, as quoted by GOAL, said:
"If a coach plays him on the wing, I will call him a donkey. It considerably restricts the creative capacity of a player with these qualities."
Earlier, Galtier expressed his views on the player during his unveiling as the new PSG boss. He, as quoted by L'Equipe, said at a press conference:
"What coach wouldn't like to have him in his squad? He is a world class player. Yes, it takes balance, but I have a very clear idea of how I want to use him. I hope that he will stay with us."
The Brazilian, who started his pre-season training with the Parisians last week, registered 13 goals and eight assists in 28 appearances across all competitions during the 2021-22 season.
Since arriving at the Parc des Princes, he has won four Ligue 1 titles, three Coupe de France titles, two Coupe de la Ligue titles, and two Trophee des Champions trophies.
Lionel Messi wants Neymar to stay at PSG
According to Le10Sport, Lionel Messi is keen to continue playing alongside his friend and fellow forward Neymar at PSG. The pair won two La Ligas, three Copa del Reys and one UEFA Champions League together at Barcelona.
Messi reportedly wants to extend their reunion in Paris, but it's unknown whether his opinion will tilt the scales.

when two or three lights shine one or two of them must be shadow to the other.. between Neymar and Messi who is a better 10 or who is better playing at the center.. for me it is neymar because he is better at running back to the defense to get the ball, Messi is more offensive and neymar is a balance of both... I think that formation will be a 3-4-1-2 instead.... although I have always preferred PSG using the 4-1-4-1 it makes it look like there are 12 players in the field and it gives high level flexibility

Agree. 100% There has to be chemistry between players. Ney should be at the centre as creator and supplier but he himself opts on the left wing where gets crushed and his creativity is lost in the game. Besides Mbbape' too big ego has to decline albiet.
Exactly they just need to be on the same page. It like everybody want to score ๐๐
