Why I miss Messi and Suarez – Neymar

Former Barcelona star Neymar has admitted that he misses playing with two Catalans stars on a daily basis since his departure from Spain last summer.

As speculation surrounding his future hots up, Neymar has been strongly linked with a move to Real Madrid named Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez as the two stars at Camp Nou he misses.

Speaking to Brazil football legend Zico during an interview broadcast on YouTube, Neymar said: “The friendship that we had was something very beautiful.

“What I miss from Barcelona and about Barcelona is these two, due to the joy we had on a daily basis.

“There was a game where I dribbled several players and then gave a pass.

“Messi dribbled several players in another play and Suarez tried to do the same dribbling and then a backflip pass.

“We started to laugh at him. We were so intimate that we could laugh at each other when one couldn’t do things. And then he arrives at the locker room and says: ‘Well, I saw you dribbling and I tried to do the same!'” said the 26-year old star

Neymar completed his world-record transfer to Paris Saint-Germain from Barcelona for a reported £200m last year with Barcelona confirming payment for the Brazilian’s 222m euros buyout clause.
