Paris Saint-Germain forward Neymar is continuing to make his mark as one of the greatest talents to play in the prestigious UEFA Champions League competition.
Neymar added to his illustrious collection of top Champions League showings with a double against Manchester United in PSG’s key 3-1 win group stage over the Premier League side. He now continues to inch closer to averaging a goal contribution per Champions League game.

The 62 Champions League goal contributions for Neymar are clearly the most by any current PSG talent. Out of those 62 Champions League goal contributions, 26 of them have come with PSG thanks to his 17 goals and nine assists since joining the club from FC Barcelona in 2017.
Neymar will have the key opportunity to possibly break even with a goal contribution per Champions League fixture average if he can log a combined three goals and assists next week in PSG’s must-win home group stage fixture against Istanbul Basaksehir.
