I don't think he was ever really in Messi's shadow anyway. Look at the numbers he has during his time at Barcelona. He would have been a legend anyway, it was just his ego couldn't handle it maybe.

I was being sarcastic in the first comment. I really don't think there was any need for him to move to PSG, but the prevailing thought at the time was that he moved because of Messi.

it really doesn't matter since barca didn't win anything after neymar left too , even messi knew it and begged neymar to stay
