The world's most expensive player has become a tearaway in the French capital, demanding the type of reverence given to Lionel Messi at Barcelona
Paris Saint-Germain may be soaring at the top of Ligue 1 and cruising through to the knockout stages of the Champions League, having easily brushed aside Bayern Munich, Anderlecht and Celtic to date, but all is not what it seems at Parc des Princes.
Behind closed doors, there is turmoil. PSG’s problems are so great because at the centre of the tempest is the world’s most expensive player.
Neymar, signed from Barcelona when the French giants triggered his €222 million release clause in the summer, is the centrepiece of the capital side’s latest attempt to finally claim the Champions League.
