Neymar's first press conference for PSG | 04.08.17

“I am very happy thanks for this new challenge. This is a wonderful city. I really can’t describe what I am feeling now.

Neymar on if he approached PSG not the other way around: “I wanted something bigger. I want a bigger challenge. My heart brought me here.” I came to Paris because I want a new challenge… not because I did not feel like the star at Barcelona. I felt good at Barcelona. My heart told me it was the time to sign for PSG, and I did it.

“This is one of the most difficult decisions I have ever made. I was at a great club at Barcelona. I am leaving a lot of very good friends behind. But that is football. I would like to thank all my friends at Barcelona, they welcomed me so well. But I felt it was the right time.”

“I kind of feel like I am at home already. I have friends here who were happy that I came. To be really honest, the fact that I have friends here would not have changed my approach to PSG, if they were not here. I wanted to figure out what I wanted to do with my life… It is very complicated to communicate when you’re not sure.”

Neymar on where he will play positionally: “I don’t know, I haven’t discussed it with the coach yet. I just want to play. I am really hungry for football. Yes I am ready, if I can play tomorrow, why not?”

“I think that I have written my chapter at Barcelona, I won some trophies…. Of course you can’t make everybody happy. I was never motivated by money, it has never been my first motivation. I am really sad people think I am motivated by money.”

“What I want to say to the Barcelona fans is thank you for your friendship.”

“I’m very happy to wear the PSG shirt and carry the name of my country with me.”

Neymar on “se queda” Tweet: “It was a bit of relaxed moment, we were having lunch together… I told him not to post it.”

“I made my decision 2 days ago. The Barcelona coach was the first to know what my decision actually was.”

“I want to thank Pastore for the number 10 shirt, I did not expect it and he has all my respect. I want to write history here at PSG. That is the only reason. I have heard a lot of people criticise Ligue 1… there is never an easy game here, having spoken to people who play here. PSG has the ability to become the greatest club in the world.
