“I am thrilled to join Paris Saint-Germain, a club with a rich history and ambition to succeed,” Neves said in a statement. “I am eager to learn from my new teammates and contribute to the team’s success. I am confident that this is the right step in my career.”

PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi hailed Neves as “one of the most talented players in Portugal and internationally.” He added, “We are delighted to welcome João to our team and look forward to seeing him grow and develop with us.”

Neves’ signing is a testament to PSG’s commitment to attracting the world’s top talent. With his arrival, the club aims to strengthen its midfield options and build a strong foundation for future success.

The Portuguese midfielder is expected to make his debut for PSG in the coming weeks, with fans eagerly awaiting his first appearance.
