Champions League: Mbappe opens up on his relationship with Neymar

Kylian Mbappe has revealed the truth behind his relationship with Paris Saint-Germain team-mate Neymar Jr.

Reports have previously suggested the pair don’t see eye to eye and have clashed in the dressing rooms on occasions.

It looked although it may have been left to Mbappe to fire PSG to victory in their Champions League clash with Red Star Belgrade on Tuesday.

But with Neymar now set to pass a late fitness test to feature, the France international has revealed their relationship is growing on and off the pitch.

“It is up to us to step it up and show that we can play better than what we have shown so far.

“I am getting along better and better with Neymar. Tomorrow he’ll show all the quality he has in order to help us win,” Mbappe said ahead of the game.

A win in Belgrade will see PSG secure their spot in the last 16, regardless of how Liverpool’s clash with Napoli at Anfield unfolds.
