Neymar has committed his future to Paris Saint-Germain as he gets set to sign a new contract with the club.

The Brazil international helped Mauricio Pochettino’s side through to the semi-finals of the Champions League on Tuesday.

Neymar, who joined the French giants from Barcelona for a world-record fee of £198m in 2017, is seeking his first Champions League triumph in Paris.

Neymar’s current deal runs until 2022 and there have been suggestions throughout his time at PSG that he could move on at the end of next season.

"This (renewal with PSG) is no longer an issue, he told ESPN Brazil after the 1-0 defeat by Bayern. “Obviously I feel very comfortable and at home here at PSG. I feel happier than I was before.”

“We have invested a lot in the club to win the Champions League and all the trophies available," he told RMC Sport

“Neymar and Kylian have no excuse to leave. We really have everything to win all the tournaments. 

“We have a great team today. We have respect for the others but we are there with them. We are working. 

“And it is not over. We need to continue, to remain calm because the Champions League is not finished. We need to work more each day. 

“The belief is there. The secret is work. The details make the difference too.”
