Signing Neymar two years ago from Barcelona was a morale boasting move from PSG, a show of power and wealth from Qatar Sports Investment.
They activated his £199m buy out and then offered him a eye watering contract; €36.8m {£32/$41m} a year which translates to €700,000-a-week.
That deal not only changed the landscape of the transfer market which is now over bloated with average players joining clubs for big money but, it made one of the best players in the world jealous.
Cristiano Ronaldo wanted more money {which Real Madrid refused to offer and he left to Juventus} while Barcelona offered more money to Lionel Messi even though he was contended with want he earned.
Cash, endorsement, club and team respect just name it, Neymar had it all to perform at the height level but he did he, nope!
Neymar was busying jostling from one Hollywood party to another, picking unnecessary fights with teammates over who will take the penalties or free kicks.
Flying in prostitutes from Brazil to Paris which ended up in court office {thank god he won it}; scuffing with opposition fans, cursing referees and get fined for it and the worst of all, picking up injuries in key moments the club needed him to be fit.
In two years with PSG, Neymar managed just 55 appearances for the club due to persistent injuries and suspensions. He failed in two consecutive seasons to win the -Champions League- the one trophy PSG are desperate to win.
Fed up with his on and off celebrity lifestyle, the club now wants him gone. The fans want him gone, most of his teammates want him gone and shamefully, even the two men –Leonardo {sporting director} and Nasser Al-Khelaifi {club chairman}- who allowed his childishness and protected him from the wrath of his teammates and manager now want him gone.
For now, you can say, Neymar has burnt his bridge with PSG.
