PSG star Neymar has confirmed he is set to renew his contract with the club after helping them eliminate Bayern Munich from the Champions League on Tuesday.
Bayern won the quarter-final second leg 1-0, but PSG reached the semi-final on away goals after a 3-3 aggregate result.
After the game, Neymar, whose current deal expires in 2022, said his renewal was 'no longer an issue' due to his comfort level at PSG

What was said?
Speaking to ESPN Brazilafter the game, Neymar said: 'This (renewal with PSG) is no longer an issue. Obviously I feel very comfortable and at home here at PSG. I feel happier than I was before.'
PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi added his belief that neither Neymar nor Kylian Mbappe have any reason to leave the club.
“We have invested a lot in the club to win the Champions League and all the trophies available,' Al-Khelaifi told RMC Sport.
'Neymar and Kylian have no excuse to leave. We really have everything to win all the tournaments.
'We have a great team today. We have respect for the others but we are there with them. We are working.
'And it is not over. We need to continue, to remain calm because the Champions League is not finished. We need to work more each day.
'The belief is there. The secret is work. The details make the difference too.”
Will Mbappe stay at PSG?
Both players will see their current deals expire in 2022, with Neymar appearing to be closer than Mbappe to signing a new contract.
Mbappe has been more strongly linked with a move away recently, with a transfer to Real Madrid still a possibility.
Sources close to Mbappe have told Goal that the striker retains a boyhood ambition of playing for the Blancos.
Though there is optimism at Santiago Bernabeu that a deal can be done, there are still plenty of obstacles to overcome before Mbappe can join Real.

It’s fair to say that any reasonable person is going to agree that there is no place in football or life for racism, but things really do get messy when claims are made that can’t be properly verified. Hex color picker for mac.
There was carnage at the end of the PSG vs Marseille game tonight as five players were sent off after a massive scuffle, while Neymar plead his case to the linesman to say that he only acted because he was racially abused:
Neymar tells the fourth official there was a racist incident after receiving his marching orders…

These are claims that have to be taken seriously and some French TV pundits appear to have made some claims about what was said, but at the time of writing there is no video/sound evidence and no players from either side have come forward to give definitive proof either way.
Neymar has since doubled down with a tweet of his own which claimed his only regret was not smacking him in the face:
Único arrependimento que tenho é por não ter dado na cara desse babaca

Critics will say that Neymar regularly acts up and can’t take defeat, but his actions and claims here are far beyond any gamesman ship so realistically you have to believe his side of events if he’s saying these things.
The Marseille defender at the centre of the storm Alvaro Gonzalez has since hit back with a fierce denial of his own, while he also makes reference to Neymar being a bad loser and how he needs to learn how to lose:
No existe lugar para el racismo. Carrera limpia y con muchos compañeros y amigos en el día a día. A veces hay que aprender a perder y asumirlo en el campo. Increibles 3 puntos hoy. Allez l’OM? Gracias familia?????? pic.twitter.com/4DuUT1PT0x

It’s another example where it’s hard to know what to make of this until something is definitively proved, but that is going to haunt the defender if it’s proven he has made racist comments and he’s made such a public show of denial.
The one thing that is clear is that this is an ugly mess and an awful look for French football, while it’s impossible to actually know what’s happened for now.
How Old Is Neymar Jr
Expect there to be a lot more fall out in the next few days, but hopefully we do get a proper answer to what went down to avoid the situation being left with one person’s words against the other.
