However, Spanish publication El National has reported that the Citizens do not want to sign the former FC Barcelona winger next season. City manager Pep Guardiola is against the move, as he feels the Brazilian’s off-field antics could be a problem for the Premier League champions.
Former Aston Villa star Gabriel Agbonlahor also urged Chelsea to avoid making the move for Neymar. “I wouldn’t go and get Neymar, not at all,” Agbonlahor told Football Insider. “You wouldn’t be able to get him out of Harrods if he came to England. He’d just be coming for another payday. headtopics.com
“He doesn’t look interested in club football. If you offered him the chance to just play for Brazil, he’d bite your hand off.” Chelsea doesn’t need another ego. Pochettino is coming in; he probably struggled to control him at PSG. I don’t see it happening. The money involved would just be silly.
