Neymar and Cavani at WAR as Cavani kicks PSG team-mate in Brazil clash
NEYMAR and Edinson
Cavani proved there is no love lost between the PSG pair during Brazil’s clash with
Uruguay last night.
Neymar captained Brazil
at the Emirates Stadium in a friendly tie with Cavani’s Uruguay.
The duo’s relationship has never been the best at PSG ever
since Neymar joined the French giants from Barcelona in 2017 - effectively
usurping Cavani as top dog.
And Cavani showed he is not the biggest fan of his
team-mate during Uruguay’s 1-0 defeat.
Neymar was drilling down the left wing and danced
with the ball in front of Cavani. The Uruguay striker in turn lashed out at his
PSG team-mate, leaving Neymar in a heap on the turf. Cavani was booked for the
incident, which could have injured his club team-mate. And as the footage
shows, Cavani clearly made contact with Neymar’s left ankle.
This is not the first
time the pair have been embroiled in an on-pitch feud. When Neymar arrived at
PSG, Cavani was still the man to take free-kick and penalty duties. But that
all changed once the Brazilian was on the team as Neymar stamped his authority
as the world’s most expensive player.

And in October this year Cavani accidentally tackled
Neymar during a Champions League game as the Brazilian was preparing to shoot.
Neymar had to go off the
field for treatment over the incident. It is not known what will happen in
upcoming transfer markets but there are suggestions either Cavani or Neymar
will be gone by the start of next season. Cavani has suitors in Italy
, having
starred at Napoli before his move to Paris in 2013.
And Neymar is wanted back at Barcelona, while Real Madrid
are also keen on the forward. Neymar scored the winning penalty as Brazil beat
Uruguay 1-0 in north London. After the game, he was asked about Barca’s
transfer interest.
But the superstar simply smiled, shook his head and
refused to answer the questions.
