The Brazilian star on Thursday told reporters that he will stay in France next season, putting an end to speculation about his possible departure.
"I stay in Paris, I have a contract." It is with these few words that Neymar confirmed, Thursday night in Sao Paulo, his intention to stay at Paris SG next season. Asked at an auction for the benefit of its foundation that helps children in difficult neighborhoods, the Brazilian star has ended speculation. Even if his statement, pithy, only looked very far from a declaration of strong and committed love.

Rumors in recent weeks had hinted that the three-time champion of the Champions League, Real Madrid, was looking to attract the Brazilian to return to Spain. Especially since the club merengue had just seen his five-fold Golden Ball, the Portuguese Christiano Ronaldo, engage with Juventus of Turin. Madrid's leaders had last week however "to clarify that it is in no way about to make an offer for the player," they had written on their website. Real Madrid had already published in early July a particularly strong statement to deny having made an offer of 310 million euros to PSG, as announced by the Spanish public TVE TV.
Except that internally, according to El Mundo Deportivo, the Neymar case divided, between a Florentino Perez eager to make a huge blow to "forget" the departure of Ronaldo and a coach Julen Lopetegui not really a fan of the player. In France, many media had hinted that PSG was open to the possibility of selling its Brazilian star. His transfer from Barcelona in August 2017 for 222 million euros had made the captain of the Brazilian selection the most expensive player in the history of football. An intention denied by other rumors – still – claiming that the Parisian leaders were considering extending his contract with the key salary of 50 million euros annually. Colossal. With this announcement, the captain of the Seleçao seems to definitively close the subject. Other rumors, however, will continue to surround Real Madrid with the possible arrival of Belgian captain Eden Hazard who wants to leave the London club Chelsea.
