- Neymar showed a young Xavi Simons who is the boss at Paris Saint-Germain
- The Netherlands midfielder is set to rejoin PSG from PSV Eindhoven
- The 20-year-old midfielder is one of the highly-rated youngsters currently in Europe
Neymar has a track record of embarrassing defenders with his silky skills on and off the football pitch, and newly signed Paris Saint-Germain forward Xavi Simons was one of his many victims.
At age 17, Simons suffered one of his most embarrassing moments during a training session in his first spell with the Ligue 1 giants when he got nutmegged by Neymar.
The highly-rated Dutch talent had no clue that Neymar was about to pull off his usual on-ball trickery and was left face-down after the embarrassing moment, much to the delight of his PSG teammates, One Football reports.
The Brazilian forward visibly enjoyed the moment and pointed to the cameras to ensure the skill was caught on camera just after he had wheeled away in celebration of his silky skill.
Neymar and Simons have enjoyed two contrasting fortunes since that moment as the Brazilian is on the verge of leaving PSG while the Ligue 1 champions are re-signing the Dutch talent.

Simons, who made his international debut at the World Cup, scored 19 goals and registered nine assists in 49 games last season, helping PSV win the Dutch Cup.
