Paris Saint-Germain forward, Neymar, has returned to his native Brazil, due to the coronavirus pandemic, ESPN reports.

Neymar left France with his international team-mate, Thiago Silva, before the country went into lockdown on Tuesday.

PSG gave all the players permission to leave the country and self-isolate where they wanted or stay home in Paris.

It is believed that another of Neymar's compatriot, defender Marquinhos chose to remain in France over returning to Brazil.
