NEYMAR has rejected a new Paris Saint-Germain deal and is willing to cut their £ 600,000 a week wages in half to force a return to Barcelona, according to reports.
The Brazilian superstar is currently the third highest-paid player in the world with £ 87 million, but he would be willing to give up a ton of cash to return to Camp Nou.
That is according to Mundo Deportivo, whose cover today bears the report.
Neymar is said to “curse” his decision to join the Ligue 1 champions for a world record of £ 198 million in 2017.
And he is said to be desperate to bond once again with Lionel Messi and Luis Suárez under the guidance of boss Quique Setien.
Previous reports claimed that Barcelona could only offer Neymar, who had been learning piano while locked up, a deal that would amount to a £ 26 million pay cut.
Barcelona has recently confirmed that it intends to only do exchanges this summer, as a result of the financial crisis imposed by the coronavirus pandemic.
They saw Neymar bought before Covid-19, but were unwilling to hit the starting price of £ 176 million.
PSG, rumored to have just offered Kylian Mbappe a new salary deal of around £ 600,000 a week, is said to be able to drop its starting price to £ 132m in the coming weeks.
However, it still seems like an almost impossible amount of money to ask for given the current weather.
And, in any case, Mundo adds that Neymar is determined not to stay in France last June 2022, when his contract ends.
Recent reports claim that Neymar was seeking to exploit a FIFA loophole to secure a transfer back to Spain.
Barça have also been strongly linked to a move for Inter Milan striker Lautaro Martinez.
But it has a £ 97.5 million release clause, so Setien will have to prioritize signing one over the other.
