Because the real world is (sadly for some) not Football Manager. That is why. Sell Neymar to get a bunch of top-class players is something you do in FM, not in reality.
Seriously, then: Walk me through how we sell Neymar and get Verratti and Dembele the same summer for reasonable prices. Won't happen. Higuain went for 93 M after Juve sold Pogba. You'll have to pay ridiculously amounts on top of everything, when you break the worldrecord-fee in income. Torres away, Andy Carrol in is another example. Get real.
Will walk you through as it's not as complicated as it seems. PSG trying to sign Neymer for couple of years now, the rumored offere was 220m last summer. Suppose we exchange Neymar (200m) for Verratti who might value between 100-120m, then Barca will have Verratti + 80-100m. As for Dembele, BVB will never turn down an 80m for a player they bought 15m a year ago. Semedo 40m and Davinson 25m. All you need some balls and an average IQ sporting manager.
Edit: Higuain for 93m was the shock of last summer, all fans still joke about it.
