Zidane confesses his admiration for Neymar

Real Madrid boss, Zinedine Zidane has confessed his admiration for Brazilian and Paris Saint-Germain superstar, Neymar.

Neymar has been linked with a sensational switch to Madrid, barely months after leaving Barcelona for PSG in a world-record €222m transfer, and Zidane confirmed he was a big fan of the Brazilian.

“They’re a very good team,” the Coach said at a Press conference ahead of Sunday’s clash with Deportivo La Coruna in La Liga.

“We need maximum concentration and to play with maximum intensity. It’s going to be a difficult game.

“Neymar? I’m not talking about players who aren’t mine. Having said that, he’s very important and loved by all of football. He’s a great player.

“Ceballos? I think he’s happy, he said so. People can say what they want, but I’ll take his opinion.

“He’s the present and future of this club. Signings? None. The club and I are never going to have problems.

“If something needs to be talked about, it’s always with the club. We’re not going to sign anyone.

“If you ask me, I’ll tell you that there are no different opinions between the club and Coach.

“BBC? They’ll be in the squad. After that, we’ll see.”
