Paris: Paris Saint-Germain coach Thomas Tuchel has again been left frustrated by Neymar after the Brazilian took time out from recovering from his latest injury to fly to Madrid for the Davis Cup tennis this week. "I am not his Dad, I'm not the police," said an exasperated Tuchel on Thursday, a day before PSG host Lille in Ligue 1. That match is set to see the world's most expensive player make his return from a hamstring injury suffered playing for Brazil against Nigeria on October 13. "I am his coach, and he has been training well.

Did I like the fact he went on this flight? No, not at all. But is it worth me going crazy over? No," Tuchel added. "If all goes well, he can play tomorrow, but whether he starts or comes off the bench, that depends." Neymar has not played for PSG since scoring in a 4-0 win over Angers on October 5. He has four goals in just five appearances in this campaign but will now be hoping to put a run of games together, with Friday's match against last season's Ligue 1 runners-up being followed by a trip to Real Madrid in the Champions League.
