Neymar Reveals Fight with Mbappé, Friendship That Has Changed: 'He Doesn't...'

The Brazilian details the issues with Mbappé, the fight they had, and changed everything

Mbappé's departure from PSG  was very traumatic, with the Parisians trying to prevent it by any means. However, it was something he had decided on for a long time as he seemed uncomfortable. That was even though Neymar  was no longer on the team, with whom he had several clashes while sharing the changing room.

The Brazilian himself has revealed that  "I have my issues with him, we had a little fight." Although he emphasizes that he's not bothersome in the changing room. And that "he was essential when he arrived." He also revealed that "I talked to him, he came to my house, we had dinner together."

However, he marked Leo Messi's transfer  as what changed everything within the team. Neymar highlighted that Mbappé "didn't want to share me with anyone" due to his friendship with the Argentine. In fact, he also disclosed that "there were some fights, a change in behavior."

However, as we say, it seems that the Argentine's transfer was a bad decision by PSG. "We had some good years of collaboration, but after Messi's arrival, he got a little jealous" Neymar detailed. The former Barça player highlights that problem between them as the worst.

Mbappé has had a different arrival at Real Madrid

Neymar has insisted on selling a "battle of egos" between Mbappé and Messi  as what ruined everything. In fact, he seems to want to point to the Frenchman in his comments about what happened. "There were big egos, and it can't work like that; if no one runs and no one helps, it's impossible to win anything," he details.

However, the truth is that Kylian's arrival at Real Madrid is far removed from those problems he revealed. Vinícius, Bellingham, and Brahim have shown they are delighted with the Frenchman. He has integrated into the locker room, being just another member of the team.

To the point that the club has asked him to be a bit more selfish and show his edge. It's good that he's generous, but sometimes the plays require him to finish them. This shows that the Madrid Mbappé is not like what Neymar describes.
