For six seasons, from 2017 to 2023, Neymar and Marco Verratti were teammates at Paris Saint-Germain. The Brazilian striker and the Italian midfielder got along well on the pitch. Outside the green rectangle too.
In addition to their well-above-average talent, the two players have another thing in common: partying. This is good, they were able to celebrate the transition to the year 2025 together, during an evening organized in the Middle East. “ The best player… after Andrés Iniesta”, even wrote the Auriverde international in the caption of a photo in which they are side by side.
Neymar and Verratti, celebration and injuries in common
More than a year after his serious injury to the cruciate ligament and meniscus of his left knee during a match between Brazil and Uruguay, Neymar returned to competition on October 21. If the former Barça player was sometimes unlucky, his somewhat reprehensible lifestyle was not always unrelated to the numerous physical problems that punctuated his career.
A remark also valid for Marco Verratti. The native of Pescara now plays anonymously, in Qatar, under the colors of Al-Arabi. His departure from PSG also marked the end of his adventure with the Italian selection, with which he has 55 caps.
