“He Is the Most Deceitful Germ” – After Neymar Jr’s $418,000,000 Deal, German Legend Thanks Al Hilal for Signing Brazilian Star

A few days ago, Neymar Jr sent strides into the soccer world after making his prolific move from Paris Saint Germain to Al Hilal. The Brazilian became another European star who followed in the footsteps of Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema, and Sadio Mane. While the Saudi Arabian spectators are happy with his arrival, a German legend has sent his special thanks to Al Hilal.

The 31-year-old’s future was up in the air throughout the summer, but he finally moved to the Riyad-based club in a $418 million deal. But why is the German legend sending his special gratitude to the Middle Eastern side for signing the former Barcelona man?

German legend sincerely thanks Al Hilal for signing Neymar

Former German superstar Paul Breitner has embraced Neymar’s transfer to Al Hilal as he sent his special thanks to the Middle Eastern side. However, hearing his appreciation may bring sadness to Neymar’s face as he makes some strong criticism. Apparently, the former Bayern Munich and Real Madrid star believes that Ney’s exit is a blessing for European soccer.

As stated by Record, he said, “Thank you, dear Saudis, for buying Mr. Neymar, one of the most dubious footballers of recent years. One of the greatest footballers who only play, and who only wants to mark his territory. Terrible.” He continued, “He’s one of the most deceptive germs. I have to say: thank you very much for not having to put up with him anymore.”

While thanking Al Hilal, the 71-year-old, now a television commentator, made an eyebrow-rasing taunt to Neymar. Breitner insists his presence in European soccer was terrible and even called him a germ. When questioned about Ronaldo, Benzema, and Mané’s decision to join the Saudi Pro League enticed by petrodollars, Breitner raised the query, “What good is the money there?”
