"We made the mistake of trusting Neymar and his father too much. He did not act with the right decorum. I do not know why he left," were some of the words from Barcelona president Josep María Bartomeu that inspired Neymar's reply earlier today.
Barcelona's execs have kept their relentless attack against the Brazilian ace after he chose to leave the club to join PSG, and even if Bartomeu's words aimed to ease the tension between fans and his presidency, Neymar's reply was short but ended up having major impact.
Using their Instagram feed, Brazilian newspaper Esporte Interativo (the one that leaked Neymar's transfer to PSG) quoted Bartomeu's words on social media. Neymar proceeded to like that post and added a fiery reply: "That president is a joke."
Esporte Interativo's original post, with Neymar's reply in Portuguese highlighted.
UEFA is currently conducting an investigation regarding PSG's transfer business during the recently closed window. Meanwhile, the attacks between Neymar and Barcelona don't seem to be close to ending, as both sides want to defend their truth regardless of what happens.
