Neymar has named Brazil's defeat by Belgium “the saddest moment of my career” and admits he is struggling to “find the strength to play again”.
In the end, Neymar’s theatrics generated more headlines than his football, with the 26-year-old spending more time on the floor than on his feet.
He was close to snatching a dramatic leveller in the dying stages of his encounter with Belgium, but his effort at the end of the contest was tipped over the top by Thibaut Courtois.
Neymar via an Instagram post, wrote: “I can say that this is the saddest moment of my career, it is incredibly painful because we knew we could get there, we knew we had conditions to go further, to make history. But it was not this time. It’s hard to find the strength to play soccer again, but I’m sure God will give me strength enough to face anything, so I’ll never stop thanking God, even in defeat … because I know that your way is much better than mine I’m very happy to be part of this team, I’m proud of all, interrupted our dream but they didn’t get it out of our head and neither of our hearts.”
Reports suggest that he may switch to PSG for a whopping record-breaking €222 million (£196m/$261m)
