Paris Saint-Germain is slowly starting to get its players back for the second half of the 2022/23 season. Lionel Messi has already returned from his vacation and Mbappe will have a few days of rest due to his short period of rest after the World Cup. However, many were surprised by what PSG did with Neymar following the death of soccer legend Pele.

The world bid a final farewell to Brazilian legend Pele during a wake held by Club Santos, the team where he transcended as one of the best in history. For this event, the star of the Brazilian national team, Neymar, had intended to attend, but his request was denied by the Parisian team and he sent his father to represent him.

“It was with great sadness that my son asked me to be here. That in his place I could give support to the family, because one knows how sad it is to lose someone. We didn’t just lose an athlete, we lost the citizen, we lost the person Pelé,” Neymar’s father told reporters.

Will Neymar remain at PSG?

At the beginning of the summer of 2022, there was much talk about tensions between Kylian Mbappe and Neymar over the role of both in the team. However, according to Galtier, the Brazilian is a fundamental piece for his scheme and wants to count on him to achieve the objectives priced for this season.
