Edinson Cavani asked Neymar if he thought he was Lionel Messi when he walked into the PSG dressing room for the first time, according to a new report.
The Uruguayan and £198million world record signing clearly don't see eye-to-eye after their recent rift over penalty and free-kick taking responsibilities unfolded, but it seems their first exchange wasn't much better either. According to Spanish newspaper El Pais, Cavani made a shocking first impression on his new team-mate following his stunning move from Barcelona.

Neymar and Kylian Mbappe need time to settle at PSG according to Bayern Munich boss Carlo Ancelotti who says French champions lack a clear identity Paris Saint-Germain striker Edinson Cavani 'rejects offer of €1m' from club to hand over penalty duties to Neymar Neymar's incredible contract details with PSG leaked following world record summer move from Barcelona Paris Saint-Germain do not 'depend' on £198million man Neymar, insists defender Thomas Meunier despite goalless stalemate with Montpellier 'And who is this? Do you think you're (Lionel) Messi?', the striker reportedly asked when Neymar first entered the dressing room. Whether Cavani was joking or was intending to insult the new arrival remains unclear, but while Neymar was seemingly attempting a leap of faith out of the shadow of his former Barcelona team-mate, he probably didn't take it too well. The alleged comment has only added more fuel to the fire, with PSG continuing to negotiate a truce between the two forwards. Cavani, now in his fifth season with the French giants, has proven to be a fan-favourite at the Parc des Princes but could well be forced out of contention given the huge fee paid Neymar's services, plus the £166m to be paid next summer to Monaco for Kylian Mbappe.
