Alexandre Letellier, the goalkeeper who gave up the No.30 shirt to Messi and Neymar's teammate at PSG, has revealed a very intimate detail about the Brazilian striker, who currently plays for Santos.

One day I was shocked by Neymar... I saw him sitting on the toilet, doing his business, but with the door open

"One day I was shocked. At that time, we were still at the Camp des Loges training center. I went to the bathroom and saw Neymar sitting on the toilet, doing his business, but with the door open," he told L'Equipe.

The former goalkeeper recalls that "I went out immediately and Abdou Diallo saw me questioning what I had just seen."

He never locks the door, he always leaves it open

Letellier says in the French newspaper that Diallo explained to him that Neymar is claustrophobic and therefore never closes the door in small spaces.

"He never locks the door, he always leaves it open," Diallo clearly explained to the 34-year-old former goalkeeper, who played for Angers (2010-18), Young Boys (2018), Troyes (2018-19), Sarpsborg 08 (2019-20), Orleans (2020) and Paris Saint-Germain (2020-2024).

Alexandre Letellier, who only played two official matches with PSG, stressed that Neymar is the most impressive player he has shared a team with: "In the rondos or in the small-sided games you had the feeling that everything was going at 100 miles per hour, while for him the game slowed down. That's why he could invent gestures that were unthinkable for others".
