The French media have been highly critical of the Brazilian star
Paris Saint-Germain were beaten 1-0 by Rennes on Sunday, which did not sit well with the French press, who slammed the team’s star player Neymar.
Despite the fact that their three stars – Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe and Neymar – played for PSG in attack, the team failed to get at least one point in Rennes. This means they are now just one point behind second-placed Lens in the Ligue 1 table.
The Brazilian striker was singled out by newspaper L’Equipe after a poor performance in the match, with the press questioning whether he has lived up to expectations from PSG?
Neymar has scored 15 goals and provided 13 assists in 22 games this season, but he has failed to rediscover his form after the World Cup break.
Neymar had a good start to the 2022/23 season before he was injured during the national team’s matches with Brazil at Qatar 2022.
He is yet to return to full form after being sent off against Strasbourg on 28 December. The Brazilian star did not play against Lens or in the French Cup against Chateauroux.
