Al Hilal striker Michael was a guest on the Brazilian program Dominjol with Benga He revealed a ridiculous episode between Portuguese coach Jorge Jesus and Neymar at the Saudi club.
“The manager sometimes leaves the house, and he's very funny. There are times when he jokes around and doesn't seem to be the same person who gets mad at us. Neymar missed a penalty kick and Jesus said: “Nay, I will teach you how to score a penalty kick.”. Neymar scored the penalty kick and replied: “Do you want to teach the priest how to say Mass? I will only miss a penalty when I want to.” TIt's all in the fun, in the review. He said: “The person next to me laughed a lot.”
Jokes aside, Michael highlights Neymar's professionalism at the Saudi club. “I had the opportunity, and thank God for that, to meet Neymar and work with him. Every time he came to train with us, he was always hardworking, and I never saw him complaining about anything. He was very easy to work with, because of his energy, his liveliness and his personality, it was very calming. I've never seen him belittle anyone, his status, never seen him disrespect anyone, challenge anything. “He always worked, always focused and gave advice on the field.”
Michael had already worked with Jorge Jesus at Flamengo, in 2019, at a time when the Portuguese coach won the Carioca, Brazil and Libertadores titles.
