During the “Sunday” program, commentator Mano made harsh criticism of striker Neymar, stating that the player “shows no interest in his career.” The statement generated debate among participants in the athlete’s future program.
According to Mano, Neymar is “much more focused on projects with influencer, having championship with influencer, than actually focusing on his own career.” The commentator expressed concern about the player’s lack of commitment, citing recent examples of his conduct.
Absence in important games
Mano mentioned that Neymar did not follow one, choosing to leave the stadium after briefly greeting the fans. This behavior, in the commentator’s view, demonstrates lack of interest and focus on the football career.
Another example cited was an episode during the Paulista Championship, when Neymar, even injured, chose to travel to Rio de Janeiro to participate in Carnival, instead of being treated.
“A guy who is a professional and is really focused on a recovery, he won’t be in a box at the risk of someone stepping on his foot,” Mano argued.
Debate about Neymar’s future
The discussion in the program also addressed expectations for Neymar’s performance in the next World Cup. Mano was skeptical about the possibility of the player “bursting” in the tournament, based on the athlete’s recent history of behavior.
Despite the criticism, the commentator recognized Neymar’s talent, lamenting that he is not being fully enjoyed due to the player’s lack of focus.
