Paris Saint-Germain superstars Kylian Mbappe and Neymar have agreed not to discuss their relationship with each other in public, after Lionel Messi played the role of mediator to help de-escalate their dispute.
Mbappe and Neymar disagreed about the arrangement of the penalty shootout last month, in one of the French League matches, with the emergence of the tense relationship between the two. Former Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos was reportedly forced to intervene to separate the feuding couple in the dressing room after that incident.
Messi acted as a mediator to help calm the persistent resentment, with a report from L’Equipe on Thursday explaining how the two players agreed not to discuss their relationship publicly, so that no misinterpretations could be read into anything they came up with, and both would adopt the position because they believed it was The best choice for team harmony and club image.
This approach has been mutually agreed upon by both players, with comments in the international break explaining how both have been committed to this pledge, as they believe it is essential for the club to enjoy success this season.
And the repercussions did not stop there, as Neymar pressed the like button on two social media posts that criticized Mbappe, including the one that said the Frenchman “controls” the club.
