The Brazilain star wants to leave PSG and join Barcelona

As reported by the Brazilian publication UOL, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) and Neymar are examining possibilities for a split, including an amicable termination of their contract.

Neymar has a two-year deal with the Ligue 1 winners, so they are not obligated to sell him. The Brazilian international was also adamant about staying in Paris; earlier this year, The Athletic reported that he intended to retire there. But things have radically changed since then.

The international superstar has notified PSG of his wish to depart before the transfer window ends, it was revealed on Monday (August 7).

The aforementioned source claims that Luis Enrique’s team is interested in offloading the former Barcelona great.

It seems sense that Les Parisiens would prefer to sell him to a new team on an ongoing basis. Finding suitors willing to cover the cost of signing the Brazilian, though, may be challenging.

Al-Hilal, a dominant force in the Saudi Pro League, is the only team that has so far expressed real interest in signing him.

After failing in a world-record offer to recruit the winger’s PSG colleague Kylian Mbappe, Al-Hilal have turned their attention to the forward. They’re eager to add a game-changing component to their assault as they try to contend with Karim Benzema’s Al-Ittihad and Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al-Nassr.

Neymar’s team and his agent are investigating alternative ways to part ways because it appears that the player would prefer to remain in Europe.

Sending the renowned player on loan to a European team with a responsibility to buy is one of the possibilities being considered.

The French are also considering mutually agreeing to end Neymar’s contract. One of the parties would have to suffer a financial loss in such a scenario. However, the player’s father and agent Pini Zahavi are trying to find an agreement.

Neymar, 31, moved to Paris Saint-Germain from Barcelona in 2017 for a record-breaking €222 million.

After a fantastic four-year stint at Camp Nou, the football star relocated to France. From 186 games in various competitions, he scored 105 goals and provided 76 assists.
