Exasperated Neymar hastily exited a media scrum after he was probed over his highly-publicised relationship with Paris Saint-Germain strike partner Kylian Mbappe.
The pair's deteriorating bond is the worst kept secret in football despite both enjoying free-scoring starts to the season under new PSG boss Christophe Galtier. But rumours over a strain in their relations have been a non-stop distraction in recent months. It reached boiling point when the pair were reportedly hauled by sporting director Luis Campos in the wake of penalty-gate. And now the Brazil superstar has added fuel to the fire by walking away when asked to addressed the current state of play with Mbappe.
It comes 24 hours after the France international was happy to tell reporters he felt a "freedom" starring for Les Bleus which he doesn't believe he has in Paris. Those comments did little to quell speculation all was not well in French capital. The question came after the striker starred in Brazil's 3-0 cruise over Ghana as they step up their World Cup preparations.
