PSG superstar Neymar speaks out on his future and the Ballon d'Or
The Brazilian could claim his first Champions League with PSG and is one of the favourites to win FIFA's 'The Best' award
Neymar is one of the main attractions for the Champions League final between Bayern Munich and PSG. Neymar was bought to ensure the French giants turned their domestic dominance into European success. If PSG win on Sunday evening, it would be the second Champions League triumph of his career.
"Here is where I want to be," Neymar told the 'Daily Star'. "The owners have a great project and part of that project is becoming the best side in Europe. We've never been as close as we are now but we must remain focused."
After 'France Football' cancelled this year's Ballon d'Or because of the coronavirus pandemic, FIFA's 'The Best' is expected to go ahead as planned. If Neymar were to win the Champions League, it's hard to see anybody else claiming that award.
"Messi and Cristiano have dominated that trophy over the last 10 years because they are both from another planet. It would be an honour to win it. But that award is given for what you do on the pitch and if you help your side become successful. So, for that reason, I need to remain focused."
"Winning the Champions League is special, I know. But to do it with PSG would be making history and that is exactly what brought me here," insists Neymar. "Bayern will be a tough, very tough, test but we are prepared. They have a lot of good players but we playing at a high level and I can't remember playing better for Paris since I arrived here. We have to remain focused."
