Transfer: Neymar fires back at PSG after statement on failure to report for preseason

Neymar Jr has hit back at Paris Saint-Germain, after the club released a statement on Monday, claiming the player has failed to report for preseason training.

His father, Neymar Sr, claims the player was scheduled to return on July 15.

"PSG knew that he would not return to Paris until July 15," he told Fox Brazil.

The Ligue 1 had said in their statement: "Paris Saint-Germain notes that Neymar Jr was not in attendance at the agreed time and place," A club statement read.

"This was without the club's prior authorisation.

"The club regrets this situation and will therefore take appropriate action."

Neymar has been linked with a return to Spain, to join Barcelona or Real Madrid.
