Real Madrid WhatsApp revelation: What they believe about Neymar and Messi at Barcelona
REAL MADRID’s stars have reportedly been discussing Barcelona duo Neymar and Lionel Messi on their group WhatsApp - and believe the Brazilian is reaching breaking point.
The relationship between the South American pair is somewhat complicated at the Nou Camp.
While they are both on the same wavelength on the pitch, there is stress behind the scenes.
Neymar is said to be growing tired of Lionel Messi having to play the leading role.
