PSG DEMAND €300M FOR NEYMAR
Joseph Omoniyi
Reports say French giants, Paris Saint-Germain are demanding a whooping €300m for the sale of their star player and Brazilian forward, Neymar.
This is coming amid several reports that LA LIGA current champions, Barcelona are plotting a reunion with their former player.
According to AF, a Spanish radio programme El Laguero claimed that the Catalan club had already made contact with Neymar’s camp and were prepared to offer PSG 100 million euros for the player, plus Dembélé, Rakitic or Umtiti.
However if reports in France on Wednesday are anything to go by, Barca’s board will have to up their offer significantly if they want to pry the Brazilian striker from the hands of PSG’s owners.
According to French daily Le Parisien, PSG chairman Nasser Al Khelaifi has set the price on Neymar at a staggering 300 million euros – 78 million more than they paid for him two years ago.
Reports were that PSG were open to letting Neymar go after Al Khelaifi came out to say the club would no longer accept players partaking in “celebrity behaviour”. Although by setting a 300-million-euro price tag, PSG would be clearly setting a deterrent for any club to sign him.
