Neymar won't watch El Clasico

The Brazilian wants to turn the page

Posted Saturday, December 23, 2017 by Marca.com

One of the biggest absences in Saturday's El Clasico will be Neymar, but the player has confessed that he won't even be watching the biggest club game in the world.

The Brazilian was one of the great threats for Barcelona against Real Madrid, something that Los Blancos captain, Sergio Ramos, has acknowledged.

However, he's already started his holidays far from the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu and confessed to MARCA that the game no longer had anything to do with him and that he preferred not to talk about it.

"Now I'm only interested in PSG and I won't watch it," he said as he climbed aboard the ship that was taking him to one of the Doha ports, after the Qatar Winter Tour that Paris Saint-Germain attend every year.

Despite all the rumours that continue to suggest a possible transfer to Real, Neymar doesn't want to know anything about and wants to focuses solely on his new project.

Happy at PSG, he is nonetheless perplexed by some of the information that has appeared in recent weeks about a move to the Spanish capital - for the same amount which the French club paid for him.

Neymar has denied it but it would also be unfeasible because Ligue 1 prohibits buyout clauses.
