Neymar Says Mbappé Became Jealous After Messi Joined PSG
Brazilian football legend Neymar recently opened up about his time at Paris Saint-Germain, revealing that his former teammate Kylian Mbappé became a bit “jealous” when Lionel Messi joined the club in August 2021.
In an interview on a podcast hosted by his fellow Brazilian, Romário, Neymar admitted that the presence of big egos, including his own and Mbappé’s, sometimes affected the team’s performances in crucial matches.
Neymar spoke about his relationship with Mbappé, stating that while they had some disagreements, the French forward was essential to PSG’s success.
“I used to call him ‘Golden Boy,’” Neymar recalled. “I always played with him and believed he would become one of the best.
I helped him out, we spent time together off the field, and our partnership was strong. But after Messi joined, things changed.
Mbappé seemed a bit jealous, not wanting to share me with anyone. That led to some tension between us and a shift in his attitude.”
Chelsea player Enzo Fernández is in discussions to join Manchester City. This information was revealed by Fabrizio Romano, who shared that the two clubs are discussing a potential deal.
He wrote: “Enzo Fernández has a verbal agreement with Manchester City on personal terms.
“Deal depends on club-to-club decision, as #MCFC have not sent an official bid yet, but contacts will take place soon; decision on price is up to Chelsea.
“Enzo could be out again this weekend.”
Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca mentions his captains for the team. He mentions Rúben Dias and Erling Haaland.
He shared “We have experienced players. For sure, we have leaders. Now we need to wait four or five more days until the transfer window closes to see if we can add one or two more captains to Ruben [Dias] and Erling , who at the moment are the two captains.”
Maresca confirmed the pair as part of his leadership group ahead of the 2026/27 season, with two more captains expected to be selected after the transfer window closes.
Chelsea manager speaks on the team and shares thoughts on considering a change in goalkeepers, giving another goalkeeper, Mike Penders, a chance.
“Penders is part of the squad, so he has an opportunity. We will decide and then I am giving the team tomorrow to the players, so I prefer to respect that they know first.”
