Neymar compares PSG fans to being ‘like your girlfriend’ after being booed over Barcelona transfer speculation
NEYMAR has compared PSG fans to being “like your girlfriend” after being booed over his Barcelona transfer speculation.
The Brazilian was strongly linked with a return to the Nou Camp this summer, just two years after he departed for Paris in a world-record £200million switch.
It was widely reported that Neymar was unhappy in the French capital.
And Barcelona spent the entire summer trying and failing to negotiate a deal to bring the forward back to Spain.
Neymar has since returned to the PSG starting XI, but that hasn’t stopped fans from giving him a piece of their mind.

The ace has now compared supporters to having a demanding partner.
But Neymar has vowed to give 100 per cent to Thomas Tuchel’s cause for the rest of the season.
Neymar said: “I’m very happy to be able to help PSG. It’s better with the fans.
“It’s like with your girlfriend, one moment you’re bad, but with hugs and a lot of love, it’s better.
