After their public spat, Kylian Mbappe and Neymar were reprimanded in front of the rest of the team in Paris Saint-crisis Germain's meeting this week.
Kylian Mbappe and Neymar quarrelled over who should take PSG's penalty.
Kylian Mbappe and Neymar had to be reprimanded in front of their colleagues at a crisis team meeting that Paris Saint-Germain was obliged to call this week.
Last weekend's Ligue 1 match against Montpellier saw Mbappe and Neymar argue about who should take the team's penalty kicks first after the Brazilian refused to let his French teammate take the second one after his first attempt had been saved.
Kylian Mbappe and Neymar quarrelled over who should take PSG's penalty.
The tension in the locker room was so terrible that veteran defender and former Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos reportedly had to intervene to break up the argument between the two as fissures once again revealed, spectacularly, among the team.
Following the departure of sports director Leonardo, Christophe Galtier has been named the next PSG manager to succeed Mauricio Pochettino, while Luis Campos has been given the responsibility of managing transactions. Together, they are now putting the team's off-field discipline as a top priority.
Galtier and Campos' hard work was undermined by the high-profile, public spat between the two attacking stars because it left both of them angry. Goal noted that this led to a team meeting this week where the two players were admonished in no uncertain terms that their actions were unacceptable in front of the team.
Before emphasizing to their teammates that any disputes within the group must be resolved quickly or they would suffer the consequences, the management told the two that they must put their differences aside.
At PSG, there is persistent hostility between Neymar and Mbappe.
The status of Neymar is said to be the source of some antagonism between Mbappe and Messi at the Parc des Princes, and numerous stories from last season detailed the severity of the Parisian locker room rift, with Mbappe claiming that Messi's friend lacks discipline and is bad for the team.
Earlier this summer, Mbappe decided to extend his contract with the Ligue 1 champions for three years. According to reports, as part of the deal to prolong his stay at the Parc des Princes, the striker would have significant influence over the club's sporting decisions.The hiring of Luis Campos as the new sporting director may have something to do with Mbappe since the two were teammates at Monaco.
Neymar 'liked' two social media postings that criticized Mbappe for the episode, continuing the fallout from the incident that occurred over the weekend. The initial post stated the following: "The coach declared that Mbappe will be the team's star performer for the entire season after the game. It's ludicrous." The Frenchman is charged with being "the owner of PSG" in the second post that Neymar "loved." The Parisian club has experienced off-field conduct problems in recent years, and this is the first significant incident of such a fallout this season. The new management is hopeful that their novel approach will be successful.
