Paris to appeal Neymar Jr ban

Paris Saint Germain takes note of the verdict handed down by the French Football Federation's disciplinary committee, banning Neymar Jr for three matches, with another two-game suspended ban.

Given the insults endured by several Paris players, including Neymar, at the end of the Coupe de France final, and the various elements submitted to the committee by Paris Saint-Germain in the player's defence, the club considers this sanction severe.

Paris Saint-Germain and its player Neymar Jr have decided to appeal this decision to the FFF's Higher Committee of Appeal.
