PARIS - Neymar has been warned against making a move to the Premier League amid the uncertaint­y surroundin­g his future at Paris Saint-Germain.

The Brazilian’s future remains doubtful after reports claimed the Ligue 1 champions had informed the player that he can look for a new club.

Newcastle United star Joelinton recently stated the number 10 jersey would be waiting for him, while Chelsea have reportedly been linked with the Brazilian star.

Former Brazil internatio­nal Edmundo has revealed his countryman won’t like the weather in England compared to France.

“Newcastle is the nouveau riche. Now, I’ve been to Newcastle, it’s a small, cold town,” Edmundo said on the podcast Mundo Ed.

“If he has difficulty adapting in Paris, he would not be satisfied in Newcastle. If they pay him what he earns, he goes.

“But he needs to be focused, concentrat­ed, even because it’s a World Cup year. If he has an equal performanc­e to the last two World Cups, will the next coach see him as a pillar for the future?”

Asked for his thoughts on Neymar’s performanc­es at PSG, Edmundo said: “It was not a good choice for him to go to PSG. “It was natural that he would earn what Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo earn, but over time, at Barcelona.”

The Australian dominated ‘Blessed’ and took the fight with an emphatic 50-45 50-45 50-45 scorecard – the tale of the fight was told in the competitor’s faces upon completion, with Volkanovsk­i having only a minor cut at his left eyebrow, while Holloway’s was literally a bloody mess.

“Max Holloway is a beast,” said Volkanovsk­i in his post-fight interview. “I needed that intensity to reach my best,” added the 33-year-old, who had pledged to now challenge in a higher weight division.
