Cavani: No feud with Neymar

Paris Saint-Germain’s Uruguayan striker Edinson Cavani said on Tuesday that he has no problem with Brazilian teammate Neymar, rejecting speculation of a feud between the pair.

Cavani and Neymar appeared to argue over penalty-taking duties in PSG’s 2-0 victory over Lyon in September and the forwards reportedly continued quarreling in the dressing room after the match.

“With Neymar, there is nothing special in what happened,” Cavani told Uruguayan magazine Ovacion. “People exaggerated things that happened on the pitch or in the dressing room, and that’s where they should stay because it’s a part of football.

“Stories that do not exist are invented or created (but) what counts is the group’s objective,” he added.
