Liverpool vs PSG: Tuchel declines comment on Neymar’s role

Paris Saint-Germain manager, Thomas Tuchel, has refused to reveal what position Neymar might play against Liverpool tonight.

Liverpool welcome the Ligue 1 champions to Anfield for their Champions League opener on Tuesday night.

Reds boss, Jurgen Klopp, had already talked of the importance of stopping the supply to Neymar, with the Brazilian operating as a No.10, centre-forward and left winger for PSG this season.

Tuchel would not say what Neymar’s role will be against the Reds, but confirmed that the Brazilian would start the game.

“I will not tell, of course,” Tuchel said when asked where Neymar might play.

“What is sure is that he will play, but in which role, I will not tell.

“It’s never a risk to trust (Angel) Di Maria. In which role though, same as Neymar – I cannot tell you. It would make it very easy for Liverpool to prepare.”
