Neymar has been accused of arriving “almost drunk” at PSG.

Neymar has been accused of turning up “almost drunk” at Paris Saint-Germain training and has been told he is “damaging the club”.

The Brazilian has found himself in the spotlight in recent weeks following PSG’s Champions League elimination and a fresh 3-0 loss to Monaco.

Neymar was jeered by his own fans against Bordeaux, and according to journalist Daniel Riolo, the 30-year-old “hardly trains” anymore and has been arriving at PSG training “almost drunk”.

He told RMC Sport via Marca: “Neymar hardly trains anymore, he arrives in a sorry state, almost drunk.

“That’s the way it is, Neymar is in a spirit of revenge against PSG.”

Riolo continued by stating that the 30-year-old is ‘doing a lot of damage’ to the club.

“PSG fans don’t give a s**t about Neymar’s antics or his Netflix documentary,” he added.

“We have to sign his check and let him go. He’s doing a lot of damage to the club. Let him go, he is ruining PSG.”

Neymar has scored just five goals across all competitions this season and has been linked with an exit from the club, with Barcelona reportedly interested in re-signing their former player.
