A final decision could be made in the next few days about Neymar’s future.
L’Equipe reported that Neymar, who is under contract until 2022, would do everything possible to try to snatch a departure from the PSG until the last hours of the transfer window, September 2.
The club from France capital are suffering serious injury problems, including two top scorers, Kylian Mbappé and Edinson Cavani. This could have an unexpected collateral effect, which could accelerating the final decision of Neymar.
In the last few hours, both parties from Paris and Barcelona have arranged a meeting, with the purpose of the shared will to close the drama without waiting for the fateful date of 2 September.
On Monday evening, the Catalan radio RAC 1 announced that a delegation blaugrana would be in Paris this Tuesday. According to Spanish media, they could offer a loan with option to buy between €150 to 170m, payable in one or two years. If this is the case, it seems unlikely that the PSG – which remains intractable on its requirements: € 222 million at least – will give a favorable response. Despite interests also coming from Real Madrid and Juventus, Ligue 1 giants are keen to keep the Brazilian star this summer, and they have been working internally in this direction for several days.
