Neymar lands player prize, then dismisses exit rumors

PARIS - Neymar was named France's player of the year at an awards ceremony in Paris on Sunday, and later brushed away questions over his future.

The Paris Saint-Germain superstar took the prize despite missing the last three months of the season due to injury.

The world's most expensive player scored 19 goals in just 20 league games for PSG before sustaining a foot injury in February that required surgery in his native Brazil.
