Neymar didn't know any of the world's rising superstars.
British Sports Bible introduced Neymar's anecdote on the 29th (Korea time) 'Liverpool fans responded to Neymar's cold answer to a question about Florian Birz'
Neymar's team, Santos, played a friendly match against RB Leipzig in Sao Paulo, Brazil on the 29th. The match was a 3-1 victory for Leipzig. After the match Neymar was interviewed by German media.
At this time, German reporters asked Neymar about Liverpool's target Birtz and Bayern Munich star player Jamal Musiala. A reporter asked Neymar for his thoughts on Birtz and asked if he knew Birtz at the same time.
Neymar's response was astonishing. Like the first person to hear the name Birtz, he replied simply, "'I don't know.'" On the other hand, regarding Musiala "He is a great player. It's a crack. He will be one of the best players in the world" he said.
It was surprising that I knew Musiala, but I didn't know Birz. Birtz is the world's seventh-largest superstar with a ransom of 140 million euros (about 218.6 billion won). Birtz is a player who has emerged as the best player in the German Bundesliga since last season. He jumped to the world class with his best performance at Bayer Leverkusen and won the league MVP award. Birtz's performance was great again this season.
Birtz is the hottest player at the end of this season due to rumors of a transfer. Birtz is the player that Real Madrid, Manchester City and Bayern Munich aimed for. Manchester City had to give up because recruiting Birz was too expensive, and it seemed to be moving to Bayern, but for now, it is likely to go to Liverpool. Rumors of a transfer to Birz have been hot throughout May, but Neymar did not seem interested in who Birz was.
What's interesting is that Neymar is close to Korean players. When I visited Korea, I exchanged uniforms with Son Heung-min and became a hot topic. When Lee Kang-in moved to Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), Neymar was the player who took the best care of him.
Neymar responded to Lee Kang-in's farewell when he left Al Hilal at PSG, "It was a short time, but you were already in my mind. I really valued my friendship with Lee Kang-in to the point where he replied, "See you later son." Neymar is also very popular with Korean soccer fans due to his good relationship with Korean players.
