Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe are said to have disagreed over Neymar's future in Paris, with the latter wanting him to leave 

Mbappe was given sweeping powers in PSG's transfer policy after signing a new contract earlier in the summer 

Messi is understood to be keen on Neymar staying, having enjoyed a fruitful relationship with him at their previous club, Barcelona.

New reports have indicated that Paris Saint-Germain's stars Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe have clashed over the imminent future of Neymar.

 PSG are said to have put Neymar on its transfer list as the club seeks to balance its books. The Brazilian has fallen out of favour with the club's chiefs.

The Daily Star now reports that Messi and Mbappe have been drawn into the saga. The former wishes to have his former teammate at Barcelona continue at Paris while Mbappe has no issue with Neymar leaving. 

Mbappe recently signed a whooping contract at PSG that is believed to have given him the rights to have say in the club's major decisions. Messi, still remains an important figure given the mammoth success he has achieved over time. 

Neymar was signed to lead PSG to Champions League victory

 The report states that Mbappe feels Neymar should be left out due to indiscipline. The now 30-year-old star was signed in 2017 with the sole purpose of leading the club to the UEFA Champions League.

He has however failed repeatedly to inspire the French giants to the title and his influence has waned in the past two years. Messi still believes in Neymar's potential, having played alongside him at Barcelona, where they were a part of the devastating MSN attacking trident.

It remains to be seen if Neymar will actually leave the club with his high wages, a huge stumbling block to interested parties. 



New PSG coach intends to keep Neymar at the club 

Sports Brief had earlier reported that newly-unveiled Paris Saint-Germain head coach Christophe Galtier has sent out the strongest indication yet that he intends to keep Neymar at the club. 

In recent weeks, the Brazilian has been subject to intense rumours linking him with a move away from the club.

 PSG are said to have put Neymar up for sale as they look to revamp their squad ahead of next season. The club is looking to lay the framework to launch another attempt to win their first-ever Champions League title.
