Neymar intends to retire with Paris Saint-Germain, says newspaper

According to the British newspaper The AthleticNeymar does not want to leave the Paris Saint Germain and intends to retire for the French club, with which he has a contract until 2027.

Hired by PSG in 2017, the 31-year-old Brazilian is experiencing ups and downs in the team for which he has already played 173 games, with 118 goals scored and 77 assists distributed.

At the Parisian club, Neymar is four-time champion of the French Championship (2017-2018, 2018-2019, 2019-2020 and 2021-2022) and the French Super Cup (2018-2019, 2019-2020, 2020-2021 and 2022-2023), in addition to having won the French Cup three times France (2017-2018, 2019-2020 and 2020-2021) and, twice, the French League Cup (2017-2018 and 2019-2020).

Even with the vast list of achievements, PSG’s number 10 constantly suffers from criticism for the fact that he was never able to lead the French team to the Champions League title, despite having reached the final of the tournament in 2019-2020, against Bayern . In addition, his behavior outside the four lines is highly contested.

The constant injuries that keep him away from crucial moments of the season also weigh against the Brazilian. In the last of them, which took place in February this year, in a match against Lille, Neymar suffered a sprain in his right ankle which, in addition to making him a casualty for Paris Saint-Germain in the match against Bayern Munich, for the round of 16 of the Champions League final, still took him out of the current season. He was operated on last Friday and the estimated recovery time is 3 to 4 months.

Because of the constant controversies, Neymar is occasionally speculated in clubs in Europe, mainly in the Premier League. In February of this year, the French The Parisian stated that PSG even met with Chelsea to discuss a possible transfer of the Brazilian to England.
