From news of dressing room problems to falling out with managers, the rampant flow of fake news has seen no boundaries. Recently, an Instagram account posted the news on how the Brazilian No. 10 faced physical fragilities during his six-year tenure. They centered the entire PSG departure saga on these latest claims. But Neymar replied with a fitting remark.

The Al Hilal winger took to Instagram to reply to the post as he wrote, “Night passes, day passes and things don’t change… there are accounts (like this) that are not in the day to day of the player, they don’t know what’s really going on but they post as if it were the guy 😂😂😂. Every day more and more the human being is lost by hype 👏.” 

The star forward couldn’t take it anymore as he put a postage stamp statement, “I still believe in a future without fake news.”

The post to which the Al-Hilal player replied stated PSG’s initial idea was to keep Neymar. However, after the club conducted pre-season tests, reports displayed how the Brazilian superstar suffers from physical problems. Upon learning this, Luis Enrique expressed concern and informed that Neymar would not start. Those words echo through the soccer fraternity as he suffered a season-ending ACL injury.
