Neymar, a star for Brazil, has stated that it is a "great pleasure" to play with Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe at Paris Saint-Germain despite the two players' futures at the Parc des Princes being in doubt.
All three players—especially Mbappe and Messi, the latter of whom has a contract that expires next summer—have been mentioned as potential escape candidates from the Ligue 1 powerhouses.
In addition to David Beckham's Inter Miami, Messi's previous team Barcelona are thought to be looking into the idea of bringing the seven-time Ballon d'Or winner back to Camp Nou.
Regarding Mbappe, his future has recently been called into question due to rumors that the 23-year-old is dissatisfied at the club and plans to depart in January, though the player has openly refuted those claims.
Mbappe, who earlier this year extended his contract with PSG through June 2025, is reportedly on Manchester United's radar as a potential Cristiano Ronaldo replacement.
Along with Neymar, Mbappe and Messi have had a successful start to the 2022–23 season in the French capital, scoring a combined 46 goals in all competitions.
Five years ago, Neymar paid a then-record-breaking £200 million to join PSG. Four weeks later, Mbappe followed him on a loan deal from Monaco with an obligation to buy, and Messi joined on a free transfer in the summer of 2021.
While it has been questioned whether all three superstars can successfully compete on the same squad, Neymar is adamant that he would rather play with the best players than against them.
Neymar remarked about Mbappe and Messi in an interview with The Telegraph: "Kylian is a young player who's been growing and showed his potential and still has a lot to grow.
"I've always thought it's nice to play with the greats since the odds of winning are higher." It's a lot of fun to play alongside Kylian and [Lionel Messi]. They are both outstanding players, with Messi long regarded as the finest in the world."
Messi and Mbappe have both made it seem as though they intend to remain at PSG. Mbappe revealed this to Sports Illustrated: "The page is completely blank in Paris. What a possibility! You must adopt a new way of thinking. Of course, traveling to [Real] Madrid was simpler.
"But I do have this goal. I am French. I was born and raised in Paris, so for me to win there is truly something remarkable. It permanently engraves your name in the annals of your nation." You can continue to succeed here. It sends a strong message to us because a lot has changed in people's attitudes since I declared that I would be staying. Yes, we don't need to go out, people start to say. There's no need for you to travel abroad."
Le Parisien quotes Messi as saying: "I like Paris a lot more now. I have discovered the city, and I find it magnificent." "The first year saw a significant change.
"Everything happened very quickly, leaving Barcelona was not my intention, and everything was really abrupt. I am content to live where I do after this lengthy period and the challenging circumstances, and my family and I are loving Paris."
At the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, Neymar, Messi, and Mbappe will be the standout players for Brazil, Argentina, and France, respectively. The latter is hoping to win his second World Cup after making it all the way with Les Bleus in Russia four years ago. check your body tags:
