Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe are in ‘conflict’ over the future of Paris Saint-Germain teammate Neymar.
PSG chairman Nasser Al-Khelaifi recently cast doubt upon the Brazilian’s future at the club by claiming that they are ‘no longer counting’ on him.
Neymar‘s long-term PSG attacking partner Mbappe opted to sign a three-year contract extension with the Ligue 1 champions last month, keeping him in the French capital until 2025 as Messi’s high-profile summer transfer from Barcelona last summer further reduced the status of Neymar at the club.
In March, PSG fans booed Messi and Neymar during the club’s first Ligue 1 match following their elimination from the Champions League by Real Madrid at the last-16 stage.
The latest report suggests that Mbappe believes PSG should look to move on from Neymar due to some indiscipline, but this has been met with resistance by Messi. The Argentine is backing up his close friend Neymar over his sporting impact and significance for the dressing room.
