Neymar was the target of new questions from the French press, and Christophe Galtier spoke about PSG’s number 10; athlete came into the crosshairs of comparisons with Mbappé
O PSG It is Neymar don’t seem to have a day of peace during the weeks of championsleague. After a strong declaration of Mbappe about body care and nutrition, the French press took advantage of the cue to skewer Paris Saint-Germain’s number 10. On the occasion, after Kylian’s statement, the Brazilian was seen eating fast food after the defeat against Bayern Munich and also attending a poker event during his break.
With that, on the morning of this Friday, the 17th, in a press conference, Christophe Galtier had the mission to answer some questions that made comparisons between Mbappé and Neymar. The coach revealed that he talked to the Brazilian, but took the opportunity to come out in defense of the star. It is worth mentioning that the striker is in the sights of the French press during the bad moment that the club is experiencing in the 2022/23 season.
“Mbappé spoke (in the dressing room) with maturity and determination, for everyone to remain focused, and I was happy with what he said. I’m not going to make connections between what he said and Neymar’s photo. I spoke with Neymar, I said what I thought. He has the right on his day off, on his day off, he likes to play poker, he has the right to that. I said what I thought about the photo, and that will stay between me and him. But I don’t think there is a connection between the photo and what Mbappe said.“, said the PSG coach.
Asked about the conversations he had with Neymar, Christophe Galtier didn’t want to give too many details and assured that he didn’t talk to just one person: “I spoke briefly with the players after the match. Yesterday was a rest day, but I spoke on the phone with Luis Campos (sporting director) and the club president (Nasser Al-Khelaïfi). This morning I spoke individually with some players, yes“.
Mbappé’s statement that generated comparisons with Neymar!
Mbappé’s declaration took place shortly after the defeat against Bayern Munich and gained even greater repercussions with Neymar’s appearance in a fast food: “Above all, all our players must be in good health. Everyone should eat well and sleep well. We saw that when we have our team doing well and we play offensive football, and they (Bayern) don’t feel comfortable“.
