Neymar could be in his final weeks as a PSG player. Some PSG fans camped outside Neymar’s house, and the PSG headquarters a few days ago, demanding his summer exit from their club.
This has led to speculation that the French giants would be open to letting the Brazilian go in the summer. After conquering Spain and France, could England be his next challenge?
Several top English clubs have been linked with his services. Newcastle has been labeled favorites for his race, but our legend Gilberto Silva wants his Arsenal to beat them to his signature. Speaking about the 31-year-old’s future, the respected Invincible wants his former side to bring his compatriot on board.
“Everyone knows the quality of Neymar,” Silva told casinosite.nl as quoted by the Metro.
“I love the way he plays, and I would love to see him at Arsenal instead of Newcastle because I love the boy as a player, but he also has a lot to contribute to football. He’s suffered some injury problems, which have made life hard for him, but he has so much more to offer any football club.
“How would Neymar fit in? Well, this would be a great task for [Arsenal manager] Mikel [Arteta]! We have to wait and see; I don’t want to talk about a player who is still contracted to PSG.”
Though he’s been sidelined since March, the former Barcelona man has managed 18 goals and 17 assists in 29 appearances in all games.
Do you think Neymar could fit into Arteta’s project?

Even if he could be signed for one pound, I would not touch him with the proverbial badge pole.A troublemaking prima donna if ever there was one.I am surprised that someone like GS would even suggest buying Neymar who I have to acknowledge was a very fine player who is now past his best.
Who’s better neymar or Eddie Nketiah ?
We had this during the world cup when fans said they wouldn’t take mbappe
Some players have such big egos, I think the negatives outweigh the positives – even when they’re undoubtedly brilliant. I think we saw this with Ozil to a great extent.
Mbappe and neymar both fall into this category imo. They would both want to have an influence on the way the club runs itself, or at least would expect to be treated differently. I don’t think that would be healthy for the club, especially now that we don’t have many characters who could stand up to it and keep people in line – if Henry and Vieira were still playing, maybe then.
No. Full stop
Neymar ? NO THANKYOU ! Those kind of characters are not what we need at our club.
Ego too big ! However, Mbappe would be great if we could get our hands on him, as he seems to have a decent personality, not spoiled (yet), industrious, genuine, ultra talented and as far as I’m concerned a far superior footballer to the likes of Neymar or Haaland, who attract such hyperbole from the media. Unfortunately as long as Real Madrid is there, players of Mbappe’s type of profile will always be attracted to them.
We were fortunate when we got Henry, Vieira, Pires, Overmars, Bergkamp etc way back when. Unfortunately times have changed.
If you believe that dressing room harmony and team spirit are vital to a teams success, then you would run as far away from Neymar in the opposite direction and as quickly as you could.
He is the classic ” me first and team second” sort of prima donna and to be avoided like the plague!
Signing Neymar would be just like when UTD re-signed Ronaldo.it also would have the same detrimental effect.
He’s also very good at football
Superior to any striker we have
Would he have scored more goals then Eddie or Jesus ?
Yes
Yes he would have scored more goals than those two, but what about all the crap he brings with him ?
worth it mate
we mentally fell part anyway
We can’t be scared to have world class players just because they have an ego
No. Thank you.
We want to go forward.
Yeah so lets get better players then we have ?
Don’t like the guy but there’s no doubt he is of massive quality on the pitch
It’s hardly surprising that a Brazilian who once played for us wants another Brazilian to play for Arsenal, and while Neymar might add some world-class quality for a while, he’d soon enough pi$$ the supporters off with needless diving and other antics.
Anyway, how could we be building a team for the future with a player in the last few years of his career?
