Neymar is for once fit going into a crunch Champions League knockout game for Paris Saint-Germain. LISBON: Paris Saint-Germain have once again been hit by a flood of injuries going into a crunch Champions League knockout tie, but this time Neymar is fit and seemingly ready to live up to his status as the world's most expensive player.
And history repeated itself a year later, as another metatarsal injury forced him to miss the defeat against a mediocre Manchester United, when they contrived to throw away a 2-0 first-leg advantage.Since then, the much talked about move back to Barcelona has not happened and does not look likely to happen in the post-pandemic market.
"I think I'm having my best time since I came to Paris," he said in an interview with the club's website last week.And how PSG - in the week they celebrate the 50th anniversary of the club's founding - need him as coach Thomas Tuchel has all sorts of selection concerns elsewhere. Perhaps most worryingly of all, midfield maestro Marco Verratti is out with a calf injury and reports claim the Italian would possibly not even be fit for the final should PSG make it.
