It is not an easy moment for Neymar as rumors have been circulating about his attitude at PSG. Chatter has been ongoing about his relationships with Edison Cavani and Emery his manager. The rumors were only fueled after he went to visit his old squad Barcelona and reportedly asked, "if I were to return, would you accept me?" After Brazil beat Japan, Neymar tried to squash the rumors by addressing them, "The stuff coming from the outside and being said about me is a real nuisance, they are inventing a lot of false stories about me. I am well and I am satisfied and motivated, I give everything on the pitch. I don't have a problem with Cavani nor Emery. I only want to be happy, I didn't come to Paris to create a disturbance, so I ask you to stop."
After Neymar spoke his Brazilian manager Tite added, "He is a good guy. Sometimes you react poorly on the pitch, I happened to be a player. It doesn't go well, but he is human." After these words Neymar got up and left the press conference in tears.
