Neymar, the 32-year-old Brazilian superstar, has had a rough start to his time at Al-Hilal. He has only been able to play five games for the Saudi Arabian club due to a serious knee injury. However, he has had time to get to know his coach, Jorge Jesus.
And it seems that the Portuguese coach has enjoyed teasing the Brazilian. According to Neymar’s teammate and compatriot, Michael, who speaks to A Bola, Jesus once told Neymar, “I’m going to teach you how to take penalties.”
Neymar had already taken a penalty, I think in a match for the Brazilian national team, and Jesus told him that he was going to teach him how to do it. Neymar took the penalty and said, “Do you want to teach the priest how to say mass? I only miss a penalty when I want to.”
It was all in good fun, of course. The people around him laughed a lot. He is very funny, but he always wants to help. You know that grandfather or father who, in his mind, understands that he has to help you for life and for the future? That’s Jorge Jesus.”
