DBasia.news – Neymar’s performance on the field caught the attention of former Santos coach, Muricy Ramalho. He considered that since joining Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), Neymar’s game has declined.
“For me, when Neymar was at Santos he was at the top of the game and at Barcelona too. Barcelona and Santos are the best for him, but PSG is not, “said Ramalho at Soccerway.
Ramalho felt, the French League had poor quality, so that it made Neymar not develop. Neymar is indeed able to score a lot of goals in the French League with PSG, but when appearing in the Champions League, they are always battered.
These conditions are certainly different when Neymar was in Barcelona. While at Barca, he is always required to display his best performance because the opponents faced are very formidable.
Since defending PSG in 2017, Neymar has recorded 63 appearances with a collection of 55 goals. “Scoring goals at PSG doesn’t mean much because the French League is weak,” Ramalho said.
In the summer transfer window of 2019, the bomber was widely rumored to be returning to Barca. However, that did not come true. The two clubs disagreed about the player’s value.
Another Spanish giant, Real Madrid, is also attracted to Neymar. But in the end, Los Blancos preferred Eden Hazard from Chelsea.
