Neymar Says Mbappe ‘jealous’ Over Messi During PSG Spell by ObaKlaz(op): 11:32am On Jan 17, 2025
Brazilian striker Neymar said Thursday that former Paris Saint-Germain teammate Kylian Mbappe became “jealous” of his relationship with Lionel Messi when the Argentine superstar joined the club in 2021.

Speaking on a podcast hosted by former Brazil striker Romario, Neymar blamed a clash of egos for the failure of the three stars to gel during their spell together at the French club.

The 32-year-old Neymar, who left PSG for Saudi club Al-Hilal in 2023, said he initially got on well with Mbappe when the France international joined him at PSG in 2017.

“I had my issues with him, we had a little fight, but he was a boy who at the beginning, when he arrived, was fundamental,” Neymar said of Mbappe.

I always told him, I joked with him, that he was going to be one of the best, I always helped him, I talked to him.

“He came to my house, we went out to dinner together.”


But Neymar said Mbappe’s behavior changed when Messi arrived from Barcelona in 2021. Neymar already had a relationship with Messi from their successful stint as teammates at Barcelona between 2013 and 2017.

We spent some good years together, but then, when Messi arrived, I think he got a little jealous,” Neymar said.

He didn’t want to share me with anyone and then the fights began, the change of behavior,” he added.

Neymar added that a lack of teamwork lay behind the failure of PSG’s superstar trio to fully realise their potential.

“You have to realise that you don’t play alone. You have to have the others on your side: ‘I’m the best, OK’, but who’s going to give you the ball? You have to have good people who give you the ball,” Neymar said.

Meanwhile, Neymar declined to give clues about his future amid recent speculation he may seek a move back to Brazil or Major League Soccer. Neymar has struggled with injuries in Saudi Arabia and played only a handful of games in 16 months.

Neymar said although he remained happy in Saudi Arabia, “in six months, everything can change.”

More of clash of Messi-Neymar-Mbappe egos than jealousy.

But this comment by Neymar is unnecessary.

Jealousy exists in male friendship.

Your relationship with a fellow guy might become so close that if they suddenly start giving more attention to another person and less attention to you, it pains you.

Even the blinds see it clearly, fighting over individual you cannot match, even if you come to this world 3rd time, instead for him to cooperate fully with other players for the team to achieve much more success, he busy chasing Shadows.


No wonder Madrid is retrogressing since he joined them.

Instead of him to learn completely from his Master's, he think say he don sabi the work. Now, he dey struggle and no Balon d'or in sight.

...na normal Pendu mindset naaa.
Both Mbappe and Vinicius are good students of Pendu and they are displaying it.

As it stands now Mbappe and Vinicius have been retired by Barca Boys completely.

Vinicius should never be nominated for anything again.
Raphinha silently does a better Job than him.
Both club and countryside

He was jealous of Messi and NEYMARs friendship nothing else.
NEYMAR seems like a very chill dude to be friends with.

The media is about to make him and NEYMAR real life enemies 😕

Instead of dragging Mbappe into some jealousy drama, maybe he should focus on why his own career has been quiet since moving to Al-Hilal. Mbappe isn’t sitting around worried about Messi—he’s busy scoring goals and staying relevant.

Neymar needs to stop deflecting and take a hard look at why things haven’t worked out for him lately. And seriously, Mbappe jealous like he’s in a love triangle? Come on, Neymar, focus on the pitch, not the soap opera! 🤣🤣

Neymar really needs to stop making Mbappe the main topic and focus on himself. Talking about Mbappe’s behavior and his so-called “jealousy” of Messi doesn’t change the fact that Neymar hasn’t been delivering much since his move to Al-Hilal. Instead of bringing up old drama, maybe he should reflect on why his own form has dropped. Mbappe is out there making headlines for his skills, not podcasts about past teammates. Neymar, it’s time to let it go and focus on your game!

Neymar should rather be more concerned about his career and his football future, as regards winning trophies/titles/awards. That's what is expected of him, not making a mountain out of a molehill on an adult's choice/rights on freedom of association...

Mbappe has an attitude problem thou.

He is not in the class of Messi or CR7.

See the instant impact Messi and Ronaldo had on Barca and Madrid respectively.

Even Benzima has proven a better player than him in Madrid colors.

I wish him the best thou.
