Neymar responds as Arsenal’s Frank Warren asks him to join Gunners

At the boxing in Saudi Arabia, boxing promoter Frank Warren made every effort to persuade Neymar to team up with Arsenal. Watching Artur Beterbiev’s thrilling victory over Dmitry Bivol on Saturday night was the Brazil international, who presently plays for Al-Hilal, the winners of the Saudi Pro League. Part of the evening was spent at ringside with Neymar, whom Warren, an Arsenal supporter since childhood, tried to convince to join his boyhood club, Queensberry Promotions.

Neymar was told by Warren in front of the cameras, “This is the man; he’s coming to England, and he’s going to play for Arsenal.” “We need you; we need you,” Neymar said with a smile before burst into laughter. “I’m back, I’m back,” Neymar retorted at that point.
