Paris Saint-Germain manager Thomas Tuchel has confirmed that Brazilian star Neymar will start at Anfield in tomorrow evening’s Champions League clash against Liverpool.
It will come as no surprise that the world’s most expensive player will start the game for a PSG side who are desperate to win the Champions League, but Tuchel would not be drawn on which role the Brazilian would be used in.
Speaking at his press conference, when asked where Neymar will play, Tuchel said:
I will not tell, of course. What is sure is that he will play, but in which role, I will not tell!
The PSG boss, who lost 4-3 on his last trip to Liverpool, when in charge of Borussia Dortmund, was also asked if Angel Di Maria could be played as a midfielder, with Neymar, Edinson Cavani and Kylian Mbappe set to play as a front three.
He replied:
It’s never a risk to trust Di Maria. In which role though, same as Neymar – I cannot tell you. It would make it very easy for Liverpool to prepare!
