PSG: Neymar admits living his "best moment in Paris" for three years

Three years ago to the day, Neymar walked for the first time on the lawn of the Parc des Princes with the PSG jersey on his back during his official presentation by the capital club. On the occasion of this anniversary, the Brazilian star, recruited at the time at FC Barcelona for 222 million euros, took the opportunity to briefly review his three years in Paris on his official website.

“These three years have enriched me a lot,” he writes in English. I have experienced moments of joy and difficult times, especially when I was unable to play due to injuries. With the help of my teammates, I was able to overcome them and focus on what really matters to everyone, which is our performance on the pitch and the number of titles. Our supporters, the club and every fan can see how our team performs in any match. "

Four days after completing a new national treble with the victory on penalties against Lyon in the final of the League Cup and eight days before the quarter-final of the Champions League against Atalanta Bergamo, on August 12 in Lisbon ( Portugal), Neymar ensures he feels fully fulfilled at PSG. “I think today I'm having my best time in Paris,” said the Brazilian.

"We are a family"

His desires for elsewhere and for returning to Barcelona last summer would therefore only be distant memories. Discussions around a contract extension could be started at the start of the school year. And to confirm that the Parisian workforce has never seemed so united, forming a band of friends who made a pact to win the Champions League, as Marco Verratti pointed out in an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport.

“We are a family before the biggest goal that we have in front of us, continues Neymar. We want to mark this season with the Champions League. We will fight for this because we have never been so close. "

Number 10 also returned to his adaptation to the French Championship. “It's a football where there are big markings, with skillful and fast young players. My quality is to dribble to get the defender away and help a teammate to score. This is how I like to play. "
