The duo had disagreed over the Brazilian’s reaction to being substituted against Sevilla, but the player’s father says he not fallen out with the coach.
The Camp Nou coach branded Neymar’s reaction, gesturing angrily about being brought off, to being substituted in their 2-2 draw with Sevilla last Saturday as “nonsense”. Neymar’s father says he has spoken to the 23-year-old and insists there is no lingering animosity between the pair. He was quoted in GOAL: “I have spoken to Neymar and understood the frustrations. The two are at peace now. He is young and he is learning, he will take these moments and use them as lessons.”
