The executive also specified that it was his entity that paid Barcelona the forward's release clause, not Neymar himself.
The Brazilian, for whom PSG has paid 222 million euros, said he does not feel any particular pressure for being the most expensive signing in history, while denying having made the decision to join PSG for money.
"Those who think that don't know me, I have always sought my happiness, not money," said Neymar.
