Why Neymar has no future at PSG and is trying to return to Barcelona

In the summer of 2017, the Brazilian star kicker left Barca for Paris for the record sum of 222 million euros. After buddy Lionel Messi, whose contract expired, the 31-year-old will probably also leave the French champions – although his working paper runs until 2025. PSG want to rebuild the squad, build a powerful team around Kylian Mbappe. For this, Neymar’s lucrative annual salary of rumored 50 million euros should be saved.

The Brazilian himself also wants to turn his back on the French sheikh ensemble, reports “Sport”. And has become active for it. Neymar is said to have already offered himself to his ex-club Barcelona as a kind of “Plan B” after club icon Messi will not return to the Catalans and will appear for Inter Miami in the future.

Barcelona’s successful coach Xavi, who once played with Neymar, has already reacted to a possible Neymar change and clearly put a stop to it. “What is being reported about Neymar is a surprise. He is not in our plans,” the 43-year-old told Jijantes. The fact that the Brazilian is associated with his former club is quite logical, “but there are other priorities,” added Xavi.
