Neymar suffering from infectious diarrhoea sweeping PSG squad and is a doubt for Marseille clash
Lassana Diarra had the bug earlier this week and it appears to have been spread to former Barcelona striker
NEYMAR is suffering from infectious diarrhoea which is sweeping Paris Saint-Germain's squad.
PSG boss Unai Emery confirmed the £198million Brazil superstar is a doubt for tomorrow's crunch clash against Marseille.
Emery, 46, said: "I'm not a doctor, the club doctor simply told me that Neymar is sick.
"Neymar is sick, I hope that he will be well enough to train on Saturday and then play on Sunday.
"It wasn't an injury issue, it was gastroenteritis and some fever, similar to what Lass Diarra had yesterday."
Neymar, 26, who has scored 19 goals this season, was sent off for headbutting Lucas Ocampos at Marseille in October.
But Emery has warned the former Barcelona star to be on his best behaviour if he recovers in time.
He said: "He is intelligent and has learned from both individual and collective experiences.

"He won't make the same mistakes.
"Neymar will be very prepared to play a great game."
PSG are running away with the league and are 13 points ahead of third-placed Marseille.
And having won every home game this season, Emery is relaxed going into the fixture.
He said: "When we play at home, I'm always calm.
"I always prefer to play at home.
"The players feel something special when they are in the Parc des Princes."
