For Neymar, it feels like a never-ending day.
Since his arrival at Paris Saint-Germain in the summer of 2017, the Brazilian striker has regularly been the victim of more or less serious physical problems.
The most recent: an injury to the left thigh which occurred on February 10 in Caen (0-1), and which deprived him of the eighth-final first leg of the Champions League at FC Barcelona (1-4).
Very quickly, doubts about his lifestyle resurfaced.
The Team
ensured that the seriousness of Neymar (29) was far from unanimous within PSG.
Never the last to party and sometimes active on Twitter in the middle of the night, Neymar ended up banging his fist on the table on Tuesday.
“You only post what sells.
And what sells is talking badly about other people. ”

In a video shared on Instagram, Neymar blasted "gossip sites" which he said treat him unfairly.
“The other day, I posted my treatment here as soon as I woke up until the end of the day,” Neymar recalled in his native language, Portuguese.
I haven't seen a single site that gave me credit: “Look how professional he is, he takes care of himself.”
You only post what sells.
And what sells is talking badly about other people. ”
That is what is said.
Last Thursday, the Parisian sports director, Leonardo, stepped up to defend his compatriot on the airwaves of
France-Bleu
.
"It's been a year since people can go out and if he was injured because of his lifestyle, what is he doing at home?" Leonardo quipped, referring to confinements and curfews that theoretically limit the possibilities of partying or staying up late.
“Honestly, the commitment of Neymar lately, it is irreproachable, added Leonardo.
We have nothing to say about his commitment, he is completely focused.
The hygiene of Neymar's life is a commonplace.
And that's not fair. ”
