Speaking to RMC following PSG’s pre-season opener against Dynamo Dresden, PSG boss Thomas Tuchel discussed the Neymar situation.
"I am always disappointed when a player turns up late. But it is clear between us, now it is between the club and Ney. We work together." said Tuchel
"Did I know he wanted to leave? Yes, I found out before the Copa America. But it is something between the club and Ney.
"I am the coach, it's my player. If he is in the locker room, this is my player and I work with him.
"I'm ready for everything. We have to be flexible. I do not talk about it with him. I'm calm, it's a thing for the club. I do not interfere, it's not my subject."
Neymar reported to pre-season training on Monday, and PSG opened their friendly slate on Tuesday with a 6-1 win over Dynamo Dresden.

He left the team before, Barcelona are struggling all these seasons without him,let him stay there or he can go to different club, plz don’t bring him back, he’s not same as before too much injuries, and might have more injuries, let COUTINUO play in mid and we have greizman.

Oh good news but I just hope the Barca board would be sensible to do a good deal, Coutinho and dembele +€40m to get him isn’t a good business . We need Dembele.. I am still skeptical about coutinho though .
