Juventus will offer PSG a trade from Cristiano Ronaldo to Neymar, says Italian journalist | international soccer

Palmeri released the information on the same day that Leonardo, the Brazilian director of PSG, did not rule out the possibility of having Cristiano Ronaldo in the club. The coach, however, reiterated that he started talks for a possible contract renewal with Neymar.

The idea behind the entire operation, according to the journalist, is to reduce some expenses in the short term, but without compromising the competitiveness of the cast. Cristiano, 35, and Neymar, 28, have contracts with Juventus and PSG, respectively, until June 2022. The current Italian champion announced a loss of 89.7 million euros (569 million reais) last season.

The Italian team will propose a simple exchange. Both receive the same salary: around € 31 million per season (R $ 192 million, at current price). Juve is not in a position to renew the contract with the Portuguese star and sees PSG as a great opportunity for a negotiation before the link expires.

According to Tancredo, another factor favorable to the operation, from the point of view of the Old Woman, is the Neymar’s constant desire to return to Barcelona. This shows that the Brazilian is likely to leave the team. Given the uncertainty of Messi’s permanence in the Catalan team next season, the future of the Brazilian is more open.

And Dybala? The Argentine was voted the best player in the Italian Championship last year, but has done little so far under Pirlo. Close to his 27th birthday, he also has a contract until June 2022, and Juve is not considering renewing it.

T-shirt 10 requires receiving the second highest salary from the cast to extend the bond. That means going from the current 7 million euros (R $ 44.8 million) per year to at least the € 12.5 (R $ 80 million) paid to defender De Ligt. The current board of the Old Lady understands that it is too much for a player rejected offers from Manchester United and Tottenham in 2019 and will turn 20 in 2022.
