Neymar: If you are not happy somewhere, you have to leave

Neymar has opened up in an interview with France Football in which he talks about, among other things, his relationship with Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe, as well as his future. 

On the Barcelona captain, the Brazilian says: "Messi is an incredible player. He's the best I have ever seen. It's not strange that he's won six Ballons d'Or because he's been at the peak for many years. There should have been a Ballon d'Or just for him." 

As for his relationship with another one of Paris Saint-Germain's stars, Kylian Mbappe, he says they have a "really good" connection. 

Neymar explained: "We're really good friends. We help each other on the pitch to keep winning and to score goals. He's a kid that has something really special. There's no competition between us. Our relationship is based on friendship and camaraderie."

On his future, the ex-Barcelona player commented: "Today I am a PSG player. I give 100 percent. I will give my life on the pitch for PSG to be successful." And on the rumours of a move away from France last summer, he assured that "I never wanted to hurt anyone but my head said that if you're not happy somewhere, you have to leave." 

As for his priorities, he said that his main objective is "to win the World Cup with Brazil. That's the objective that I'm chasing." 

On the Ballon d'Or, a trophy he has never won, he said that "I would love to win it, but it's not a concern. The Ballon d'Or comes on its own... or it doesn't."
