At the stadium, there will be hardly anyone to break their voice, scream their love, their fervor and carry PSG in their best fight, this Champions League final against Bayern Munich. But Neymar and his gang know it, even facing deserted stands, they will not walk alone on Sunday night on the lawn of the Luz stadium. In addition to the support of the handful of supporters who have invested the Portuguese capital, several Parisian players will also be able to count on the positive waves of their relatives.
Although they do not have access to a Luz stadium which will only allow 25 guests per club, several clans have chosen to join Lisbon to experience the event as close as possible to “their” hero. This is the case of the “Neymar tribe”, which has taken up residence in Cascaïs, a popular seaside resort located about thirty kilometers west of the capital. Beyond his agent, Pini Zahavi, and his father, Neymar Senior, who had dinner with Nasser Al-Khelaïfi after the quarter-final, his sister Rafaella or his friends Gil and Jota, the son of the Brazilian star , Davi Lucca, also made the trip to Portugal with his mother Carolina Dantas.
All the Brazilians of PSG will therefore have their loved ones nearby. Still on vacation at the time of the quarter-final against Atalanta, it was in Portugal that Luan, Marquinhos' brother, celebrated his younger brother's goal on Tuesday in the half against Leipzig. Also based in Cascaïs, he should follow the final against Bayern at the restaurant with Carol Cabrino, the companion of Marqui, who has planned to arrive this Sunday.
The Mbappé clan did not make the trip
Isabelle Silva, the wife of the Parisian captain, flew away this Saturday afternoon with her sons Isago and Iago. "This is a very important moment for our family and even if we cannot go to the stadium, we will be there to support Thiago and the whole team," O Monstro's wife said, before winning the Portugal by private plane. United to the city as are their husbands on stage (and outside), Spanish speakers like Wanda Icardi, Camila Galante (Paredes) or Jorgelina Cardoso (Di Maria) are also expected in Lisbon.
However, not all of them made the choice to travel. Faced with the Covid, the Mbappé clan thus decided not to make the trip to Portugal. At PSG, we also insist on the fact that in the context of the epidemic, the club has not organized anything, leaving travel to the initiative of each. One reason why most of them will also follow the meeting in small groups, in front of the screen of their hotel or a restaurant.
Officially, no celebration is planned, either, after the meeting if successful. There is no doubt, however, that if all the intimate friends made the trip to Lisbon, it is in the hope of being able to share the post-match with their loved one in the heart of the Myriad hotel that the club de la capital has fully privatized. "Nothing is planned, but we will see what is possible after the match", nevertheless confides a relative of one of the Parisian stars who hopes not to make the trip for nothing.
