During the UEFA Champions League match yesterday, Paris Saint-Germain star Neymar stated that he no longer plays as a winger on the field.
PSG team, with Neymar, will face Red Star Belgrade tonight. The start of the Champions League was not the most successful for the Parisians - they lost to Liverpool. Today, PSG will seek revenge and defeat the Serbs who took points from Napoli.
When asked to comment on his game in PSG, Neymar said: "I like playing in the number 10 position because I can control the game and help my teammates more.
I never said I wanted to play in this position, it was the coach's desire, with which I completely agreed. I have played in a similar position during my time in Santos and Barcelona.
Creating opportunities and scoring goals is nothing new to me. My tasks in the PSG team are different, but my desires remain the same - I like to have the ball.
Asked if he has any similarities with Lionel Messi, Neymar was not inclined to talk about it: "I don't like comparisons with Lionel."
