PSG have just finished their pre-season but Neymar has informed them of his desire to quit the club this summer and has named his ideal destination with Kylian Mbappe potentially leaving too
Neymar has told PSG he wants to quit the French club after six years in Paris, according to reports.
The Parisians made the Brazilian the most expensive player in history in 2017 – a title he still holds – but the forward and his family have come together and decided they want to pursue a new challenge elsewhere. The £198m addition and his agent, Pini Zahavi, informed PSG of their desire following their return from their pre-season tour.
L’Ãquipe state that Neymar has decided he wants to move back to Barcelona, the team he left six years ago with the Catalan outfit open to his return. It was the LaLiga side who first bought the forward to Europe in 2013 following his success in his homeland with Santos.
Neymar has another four years remaining on his deal at the Parc des Princes but is said to still be affected by the protest from the PSG ultras who staged a demonstration outside his house in the spring. The 31-year-old also feels as though the French club are not doing enough to protect their players.
