GOAL reported that Brazilian outlet Ge Globo published Neymar's comments from an interview with the Varanda Gourmet channel. Neymar said he plans to spend a whole year doing nothing at all when he retires and said watching football on television makes him angry.
His retirement plan
Neymar said: "It's clear that when I retire, I'll spend a whole year without doing anything at all."
He also said: "I'll live it this way: if today I feel the urge to play football, I'll play. But if today I don't feel like doing anything at all, I won't do anything."
Why he does not watch football
He explained: "No, I don't like it. I love basketball, but I only watch it from time to time. I get angry when I watch football."
Neymar added: "When I talk about this in interviews or with my friends, no one used to believe me. I love football, but I love playing it. As for sitting on the sofa and turning on the TV to watch a match, I can't do that."
His memories from Paris and Barcelona
He continued: "When the young lads used to stay with me in Paris and Barcelona, on Saturdays and Sundays the TV showed nothing but football matches. I would get extremely angry, and I wouldn't even stay in the living room."
