PSG president: Media responsible for reported Neymar, Cavani beef

Days after a dispute between Neymar and Edinson Cavani was branded by papers as a 'war of egos,' Paris Saint-Germain president Nasser Al-Khelaifi has poured cold water on reports of friction between the two South American attackers.

The pair clashed on two occasions in an attempt to determine free-kick and penalty duties during a weekend victory over Lyon.

That prompted PSG boss Emery to publicly comment on the matter. "I have told them to sort it out between themselves," Emery said, according to Callum Davis of The Telegraph.

Al-Khelaifi says it's all hogwash, telling RMC Sport, "A problem? No, there is nothing."

The Qatari businessman doubled-down on his remark, adding, "You, the media, are the ones who make the problems."

With that sorted, Neymar and Cavani will get another chance to form Europe's most feared three-headed attack with Kylian Mbappe when table-topping PSG visits Montpellier on Saturday hoping to keep a perfect six-for-six record intact.
