Parties and football. An eternal dilemma that will probably never have a solution. There are those who assimilate professionalism with behavior, and for them the nightlife of a footballer is strictly prohibited, since it can alter their performance, and on the other hand, those who ensure that we all have the right to have fun, as long as both are compatible. One of the defenders of this theory is Neymar, a player who likes to have fun both on and off the field of play.

Just a month after the scandal over the way Neymar celebrated his birthday, Paris Saint Germain sports director Leonardo Nascimento de Araújo, commonly known as Leonardo, came out to defend the number 10 with a surprising statement that undoubtedly makes the brazilian star smiles. So much so, that he assured that it is his essence, and he needs it to find his internal balance.

Neymar's birthday parties are already a classic and one of the most anticipated events of the year by the Brazilian's friends and the world press. It is not a novelty that the crack of PSG loves to celebrate his birth anniversary, and year after year he is overcome with the celebrations. However, this year he could not enjoy it as he really would have liked, as he was involved in a series of controversies, triggered by the context of the pandemic in the world, and his repeated injuries, to which he increasingly assimilates them to their nights out.

Neymar has a contract with the Parisian club until June 2022, so, although the negotiation is underway, and the player wants to continue at the club, he will have to sign the renewal to remain linked to the orders of Mauricio Pochettino. In this context, Leonardo was optimistic about reaching an agreement, which links them, at least, for a few more years, since the commitment of 10 with the club is irreproachable and it is very important for them to have him in their team.

Mbappé has to decide as soon as possible

The young forward Kylian Mbappé, has a contract until the same date as Neymar, but his fate is still uncertain. Intended by many teams in Europe, the Paris team wants to seal the contract as soon as possible, to ensure that the Frenchman continues in their team, as they consider him to be a key and irreplaceable piece. In this way, he will have to define his future in the coming weeks, as he intends to seal the bond once the round of 16 ends, after the match against Barcelona on March 10
