PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN made a mistake in signing both Neymar and Kylian Mbappe, the club's sporting director Luis Campos has admitted.

Then in 2018, PSG signed the French superstar on a permanent transfer worth up to £165m.
Both have enjoyed successful spells at the club, albeit without winning the Champions League.
