A report has emerged via Marca where renowned journalist Romain Molina is suggesting that the Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) hierarchy is 'fed up' with Neymar. The club is reportedly willing to sell the Brazilian star in the summer.

The Parisians had big dreams when they splashed a world-record €222 million to secure Neymar Jr's signature in 2017. He was supposed to be the face of the club, arriving in his prime from Barcelona.

The fame was there for the taking as the Brazilian was finally stepping out of Lionel Messi's shadow. PSG were going to be his team, built around him to get the best out of him and he could then propel them towards Champions League glory. This coming August, Neymar will celebrate the fifth anniversary of his PSG career, but it may not really be a happy one.

There are too many issues with the attacker in terms of how much money he gobbles up in wages and how much of it has been translated on the pitch.

Every season, the Brazilian has missed a significant chunk of games due to injuries and the record is quite a horrendous one for someone who cost €222 million. Overall, he has missed over 100 games for the Paris giants and has managed to reach 20 Ligue 1 appearances only once in the 2017-18 campaign.

Since that season, Neymar has found ways to land himself in controversies on and off the pitch, which reflects badly on both his and the club's reputation.

According to the aforementioned report, the Qatari emir has made up his mind and is convinced that he does not want the Brazilian at the club next season.


Neymar failed to make an impact for PSG against Real Madrid in the Champions League

This season presented a great opportunity for the Brazilian attacker to slam his doubters and win Europe's premier club competition. PSG united him with his old pal Lionel Messi and the world was looking forward to seeing both of them wreak havoc on the opposition.

They had an in-form Kylian Mbappe in their side, and the famed 'MNM' should have delivered the goods. However, all the responsibility fell on the young Frenchman's shoulders, who did his best over the course of two legs, scoring both of PSG's goals.

But it was a very embarrassing performance from Neymar, who disappeared on the big occasion. There was no intensity shown from him to take on the defenders, link-up the play and stitch passes. When Real Madrid upped the tempo of the game, the Ligue 1 side couldn't cope up.

It was really disappointing to see that the Brazilian couldn't keep up with 36-year- old Luka Modric, who went dribbling past him and other PSG players. Instead, after the match, there were rumors that he and goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma had gotten into a fight and had to be separated. Neymar has been busy providing clarification on the controversy. No doubt the French giants are fed up with him.
