Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe in 'conflict' as private plan to offload Neymar emerges

Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe are in 'conflict' over the future of Paris Saint-Germain teammate Neymar.

PSG chairman Nasser Al-Khelaifi recently cast doubt upon the Brazilian's future at the club by claiming that they are 'no longer counting' on him. Neymar's long-term PSG attacking partner Mbappe opted to sign a three-year contract extension with the Ligue 1 champions last month, keeping him in the French capital until 2025 as Messi's high-profile summer transfer from Barcelona last summer further reduced the status of Neymar at the club.

PSG completed their Ligue 1 title success in April but fans are so disillusioned with their side at the moment that they did not want to celebrate the success with the players. In March, PSG fans booed Messi and Neymar during the club's first Ligue 1 match following their elimination from the Champions League by Real Madrid at the last-16 stage.
