Zidane: I’ll love to have Neymar.


Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane stated his
admiration for Paris St Germain forward
Neymar  amid continuing reports in the
Spanish media over a future bid to take the
Brazilian to the Bernabeu.
Asked about Neymar at a news conference
ahead of Real’s Liga home game with
Deportivo La Coruna today, Zidane said: “I
don’t talk about players that aren’t mine, but
having said that, and this is very important,
he’s a player that everyone on planet football
loves because he is a great player.”
PSG, who face Real in the last 16 of the
Champions League, plucked Neymar from
Barcelona last August for a world record 222
million euros ($271.28 million)although
despite his impressive displays on the pitch he
has cut an unhappy figure at times.
Real tried to sign Neymar when he was at
Santos but were pipped to his signature by
Barca and last month the club’s president
Florentino Perez made a thinly veiled appeal
to the Brazilian to join the 12-times European
champions.
“Being in Madrid would make it easier to win
the Ballon d‘Or,” Perez said in an interview
on Spanish radio.
“Madrid is a club that gives a big player
everything they need to do so. Everyone
knows I wanted to sign him.”
Real have lost two and drawn one of their last
three league games and fallen 19 points
behind runaway leaders Barcelona.
Today’s game against Deportivo, who are in
the relegation zone, offers the floundering
European and Liga champions a chance of
temporary relief from their crisis.
Zidane said his ‘BBC’ strike force of Gareth
Bale, Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema
were fit to play, though he did not reveal if he
would field the trio, who have not started a
game together since facing Barcelona in April
last year.”
