Finally, Neymar’s future was almost clear in a summer transfer window full of surprises and drama until the last minute.
The latest news that Neymar will leave PSG in the final days of the summer 2023 transfer season will probably be one of the biggest surprises of European football at the moment, besides the fact that Liverpool have just spent 110 million pounds for the signing of Moises Caicedo.
And more notably, when the club that the Brazilian star chose to go to next was Barcelona, the team he once “hated the most” and left with a world record transfer fee of 222 million euros.
This incredible statement from PSG reflects a major change in the plans and calculations of the rich Frenchman, because from the beginning of the summer until now, Nasser Al Khelaifi has always insisted that he will not sell Neymar . That statement was later confirmed even more clearly when the home team at the Park of the Princes welcomed the Spanish coach, Luis Enrique, a person very familiar with the Selecao player.
Perhaps now, things have gone too far compared to the calculations of the PSG leadership and the scandalous Qatari president. Because when agreeing to negotiate on the transfer of the 30-year-old striker, it seems that Nasser Al Khelaifi has accepted to go to the water, and go a different way of doing football. Especially in the context, Kylian Mbappe was also determined not to stay in Paris any longer.
On the Barca side, President Joan Laporta expressed a very welcome return of the old man, especially when they had just sold 49% of Barca Studios shares for a huge amount of up to 180 million euros, enough to detonate any player. any blockbuster in the current football world. The president of the Catalan giants considers Neymar as a “jewel” in the field of marketing and advertising, which the Blaugrana desperately needs in the period of rebuilding the image of the mighty king of Spanish football. What day.
As for Neymar, the recent “updated” statuses are enough to understand how bad the Brazilian star’s feeling was at Parc des Princes. And choosing to return to Barca, to the club he hates to go to the most, can be considered as an option to save the dark days ahead in the magnificent Paris capital.
