Paris Saint-Germain finds Neymar replacement

Neymar’s replacement at PSG has been found after a team-mate scored a stunning solo goal, that's according to some fans.

The Brazilian has been linked with a move back to former club Barcelona after only two seasons in the French capital.

The 27-year-old has scored 51 goals in 58 appearances, helping the side to a treble in 2017/18 and consecutive titles.

Footage has emerged, though, of team-mate Eric-Maxim Choupo-Moting showing he can also find the net in style.

In the clip, PSG are goalless after 50 minutes against Toulouse.

Angel Di Maria carries the ball forward finding the Cameroon international in the penalty box.

The forward tries to pull off a one-two but the ball rebounds back to him.

With four defenders to face, Choupo-Moting attacks.

PSG’s forward spins around two players to the left before finding space.

He sprints through before unleashing a left-footed shot.

The ball rifles off the upright and into the net at pace.

Les Parc Des Princes erupts in celebration while Choupo-Moting runs to the fans.

The Cameroonian scored a second goal as PSG won 4-0.

This footage was shared on Instagram earlier today, where it has been viewed nearly 400,000 times.

And fans believed the 30-year-old could replace their outgoing Neymar.

“Choupo > Neymar,” one supporter said.

Another commented: “Neymar who?”
