The Champions League knockout matches are officially announced, and Barcelona’s high-profile opponent is also announced, that is Paris Saint-Germain of Ligue 1. This matchup can't help but remind people of the wonderful game four years ago when Barcelona beat Paris Saint-Germain 6-1 at home in the second leg of the Champions League round of 16. But Neymar, the goalscoring hero of the Barcelona team at the time, had already switched to Paris Saint-Germain. What kind of sparks will Neymar create when he faces his old club for the first time?
In response, Neymar posted a photo with Messi on his personal social media, and wrote: "See you again soon, my friend!" This was obviously meant for Messi. After all, the friendship between Messi and Neymar has gone beyond the court. And Neymar's words actually have a bit of a pun in them. Most fans believe that Neymar's statement is more about expressing that Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain will meet in the Champions League. Of course, this possibility is not ruled out. But after the Western media reports came out, this paragraph seemed to have a different flavor.
According to Spanish Channel 6, the connection between Messi and Paris Saint-Germain is getting stronger, and Messi’s father met with Paris Saint-Germain last week , it is not ruled out that Messi will join Paris Saint-Germain in the winter window. Messi's future affects the hearts of many fans. Now in Barcelona, ??more fans still hope that Messi can go out and join other teams. Now, Neymar's words seem to express that he will soon be able to join forces with Messi as teammates against Barcelona.
Spain Channel 6 further stated that based on the talks with Paris Saint-Germain, Messi is now more inclined to join the Paris Saint-Germain club with Neymar than the Premier League Manchester City club. . And when Messi was making a transfer in the summer window, Paris Saint-Germain also had a conversation. Paris Saint-Germain is currently planning to sign Messi before the winter window and team up with Neymar to play against Barcelona in the Champions League knockout round.
Of course, this news is a huge blow to Barcelona fans. Four years ago, Messi and Neymar teamed up to defeat Paris Saint-Germain, and now Messi and Neymar may team up to fight Barcelona. If this happens, coupled with the Paris Saint-Germain lineup and Barcelona's current state, it will be very difficult to win.
