Neymar and Kylian Mbappe shared the Paris Saint-Germain dressing room for six years. It would be safe to say that the relationship between the two footballing superstars evolved during that period of time and there have been rumours of everything not being fine between the two for quite a while. The Brazilian left the French capital for Al-Hilal in the summer and it looks like his former teammate will soon head for the exit door as well, with a move to Real Madrid believed to be close.
There have been conflicting reports about the matter all around the media. But as reported by MARCA, Mbappe has already signed his contract with Real Madrid.
That would mean that over the course of a year, PSG would have seen Lionel Messi, Neymar and Mbappe leave the club. If there was ever a blow in football history, this one is it.
Amidst all this, Neymar's activity on social media has caught the eye of fans. And it looks like he has taken a dig at Mbappe.
Neymar takes dig at Mbappe ahead of Real Madrid move
As reported by GOAL, Brazilian social media account Jogada Ensaiada posted an assessment criticising the nature of Mbappe's influence at PSG and the state of the squad ahead of his summer exit as a free agent. Neymar 'liked' the post.
Of course, this has led to further speculation regarding a potential rift between Neymar and Mbappe. It had started brilliantly for the duo at PSG, as they appeared to be friends on and off the pitch, but things appeared to head south over time.
Initially, Neymar was the superstar between the two. But as the Brazilian continued to deal with constant injuries, Mbappe's influence at PSG grew bigger, as he established himself as one of the best players in the world.
