In a stunning revelation, Neymar took a dig at Ousmane Dembele’s difficulties at PSG by engaging with a social media post that compared their scoring performances.
The Brazilian forward couldn’t help but chuckle at a stat comparing the duo’s scoring feats for the Parisians, which showed a clear difference in their contributions on the field, according to psg talks
The post, which Neymar laughedily approved, highlighted his exceptional scoring record and his two goals in the 4-0 French Super Cup thumping of Nantes.
This occurred just before Neymar’s highly publicized move to Al-Hilal in the Saudi Pro League. In the meantime, Dembele, who was bought after his departure, has struggled to find the net, managing just one goal since departing Barcelona for a substantial €50 million (£43 million/$55 million).
Neymar shines, Dembele dims
Throughout his 20 Ligue 1 appearances, Dembele has only contributed one goal and seven assists, which has brought his time at PSG under scrutiny.
Neymar, on the other hand, boasted an impressive 118 goals in 173 appearances prior to his departure; a huge feat compared to the former Barcelona’s solitary goal for PSG.
Dembele is on a 12-match goal drought, which is worrisome for PSG’s aspirations and the self-assurance of the French striker.
As PSG gears up to take on Monaco in Ligue 1, a chance for atonement looms. Expectations are high for Dembele to return to form after he scored in their previous meeting in November of last year.
