Neymar: Messi refused to take penalty at PSG

Brazilian forward Neymar recalled an incident from when he played for the "Santos" team and was together with Lionel Messi at "PSG". This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

According to Neymar, on one occasion at "PSG", he asked Messi to take a penalty kick, but Messi refused and replied: "No, I am not here to do that. Either you take it or give it to Mbappe."

It was emphasized that Messi did not argue and is a very calm person. Neymar played for "PSG" from 2017 to 2023, while Messi was active in the same team from 2021 to 2023.
