The rumours of Paris Saint-Germain superstar Neymar’s change are getting louder and the reports that PSG may be ready to let the Brazilian go are meeting with great interest from Spanish record holders Real Madrid.
According to information from Goal and SOCCERSCORE, the royals want to benefit from the unrest surrounding PSG and Neymar and pilot Neymar as the second royal transfer of this summer to Eden Hazardins Santiago Bernabeu.
Last weekend, PSG boss Nasser Al-Khelaifi publicly criticised the behaviour of some of the reigning French champions’ players. At the same time, sports director Antero Henrique, actually a big Neymar fan, is no longer there. He has now been replaced by Leonardo. He doesn’t think much of the 27-year-old.
A transfer to the Blancos could therefore be the right step for Neymar at the right time. Florentino Perez is an ardent admirer of the attacking player anyway, but has yet to convince Neymar.
In Madrid, the 27-year-old Selecao international (Neymar is missing from Copa America due to injury) would be the sixth newcomer to the coming season. Luka Jovic, Eden Hazard, Eder Militao, Ferland Mendy and Rodrygo have already signed to the Champions League winner dethroned last season. Zinedine Zidane also seems to be interested in Manchester United’s Paul Pogba.
Neymar would be another star in the Blancos squad, which is above all offensively diversified, but for whom one would have to pay a large sum and also plan for high salary costs. The Brazilian’s contract runs until 2022.
In addition to a transfer to Real, there will also be a return to FC Barcelona, which was reported on the night of Monday to Tuesday.
