NEYMAR has told Paris Saint-Germain he does not want to play for them ever again, according to reports.
And the Brazilian was allegedly unhappy with life in the French capital just weeks after joining in a world-record £198m deal two years ago from Barcelona.

That’s Spanish publication Sport‘s claim, who go on to state his love affair with Paris lasted only a matter of days before things began to go wrong.
And he is now angling back for a return to the Nou Camp this summer.
Neymar had much-publicised rows with team-mate Edinson Cavani over penalties as well as fall-outs with both the club’s medical team and president Nasser Al-Khelaifi since his arrival.
Additionally, the 27-year-old Samba superstar is annoyed by the dressing-room cliques at Parc des Princes and playing in front of small crowds against poor opposition in Ligue 1.
He has also been on the receiving end of rough-house tactics from other clubs and thinks he fails to get the adequate protection from referees.

And that has led to a number of injury problems, forcing him out of PSG’s biggest matches in both of his campaigns with them.
The Parisians shocked the world with his capture in 2017, and his main mission was to deliver the Champions League.
But firstly Real Madrid and then Manchester United this season dumped them out of the competition at the last-16 stage with Neymar sitting out both due to injuries.
That has led to a frosty relationship with both the club’s supporters and fans.
And Sport claim he had made his mind up 12 months ago he wants out.
Despite his controversial departure, Neymar remains close friends with Lionel Messi and several other members of the Barcelona squad.
And that is why he reportedly told Al-Khelaifi to sell him before heading to Brazil to prepare for the Copa America prior to him suffering his latest injury.
