Weird part is Brazilian Media is going bananas about all this while the Catalan media/Journalists are skeptical and they all repeat the same thing Neymar told the board he has no intentions of leaving. The French Media I notice is a mixed bag, Le Parisen is talking about PSG wanting to go after Sanchez while L'Equipe pretty much shat on the Neymar to PSG rumors.

Shit is a circus.

Problem is Neymar is a circus. If he concentrated on his football and didn't have his father in his ear he'd be on a different level.

Neymar and his father are annoyed after Barcelona refused to sign Lucas Lima and failed to sign compatriot Coutinho. [GLOBO]

The article also mentioned that Neymar requested the signing of Paulinho as well.
Globo is known to be very reliable but hope this is just a story created by them.
I posted that earlier and yeah even given Globo's reliability I just can't believe that. The stuff with Higher wages and wanting to be the main man, I can get but that?

If true it really paints Neymar and his dad in a really bad light. Especially Neymar Sr, who would benefit the most from Lima coming here as he would get a nice commission fee. Coutinho, was never going to be realistic as Liverpool don't want to sell him. Paulinho and Lima are just garbage signings that wouldn't make this team any better. We would be stuck with two dudes in our Non Eu Spots, on High wages that would ride the bench or be left out of the squad.

Our board is crap but I just have a hard time trying to blame them here if Neymar wants to leave for his own reasons. We can't pay him the absurd wages PSG are offering him, Messi is still the main man here for obvious reasons and for him and his dad for not being happy we aren't trying to sign a Superstar player at a team that isn't willing to sell and two other players who simply aren't good enough for us so we can make them happy.

If these rumors are really true, I would rather let him go than give him another contact. He can't just blackmail us to give contract every year.

In a market where Morata costs 80M€ and Pogba 110 M€, i don't find completly crazy that Neymar costs 220 M€.

Honestly, i prefer he stays in Barca. I'm love with the MSN. I hope Paris will sign Sanchez for 55 M€, ans that's it, everybody will be happy.

What are our options in case he goes?

>Dembele - not a LW, maybe an option for RW, but not Neymar's replacement
>Mbappe - again not a LW, and being a huge Ronaldo fanboy cannot see coming to us
>Dybala - same as above, has more of a central "Messi" role
>Sanchez - 1 year left in his contract, good option, 50-60m, wood he want to come back?
>Griezmann - won't come this year.
>Hazard - I can't see Chelsea selling, but a great option.

Anyone left out?

This was so obvious and I said it long ago but fanboys here laughed at me. I can't believe this board was trying to buy a mediocre player from China for 30m+ just to please his ass. As much as I liked him (I never criticized him before Lima/Paulinho links) but him and his father are cancer. Neymar will never win the Ballon d'or at PSG so reality check will hit him soon when he stink in Ligue 1.

Barca fans have never really warmed to Neymar. He's appreciated but he will never receive the same affection as Messi.

Let him go.....

Barca is much bigger than any player. If he goes, he goes and we move on with other great players. I don't see the big drama here, in neither scenario.

how can people say 220m will bring us 3 world class players?

it'll only bring us a world class player + a good player, nothing more, nothing less... if the likes of lukako and pogba are about 100-120m, and juve rejected 100m for 29 old heguin.

THEN; how much will other clubs ask for their superstars? i'd say at least 150m (players like countinho, verrati, deybala)

if monaco are asking 140m for mbappé, then dortmund won't sold dembelé for any less.

neymar is a top class player, imo, second best in the world after messi. everyone knows what he's capable of, and he's improving year after year (see him with brazil in WC Q and you'll realise how much of a monster he is), he deserves way more than just 222m, don't let it foul you, because the time has changed too much. by next year, clubs will start asking 100m for mediocre players .

Stupid reasoning, transfer market doesn't work like that. If player A is 50M and player B is twice as good it doesn't mean he will cost 100M. And for sure he is not seen as the second best for many people. It's clear everyone would want Messi or Ronaldo in their team. But for Neymar, i'm sure you will get different opinions and alot of coaches will opt for someone else.

The Higuain offer is not confirmed. Pogba is young and world class, he has still many years to go. Lukaku is young a proven goal machine in the premier league, he has great stats even compared to retired people. Both of them are managed by the best agents who know how to make the value of their players higher than it should be.

I'm annoyed he still hasn't came out saying its all rumours, honestly he should fuck off already

Really? Every transfer window is full of shit and rumours. How many players have you seen doing it? You create an opinion about Neymar based on rumours. At this moment nothing confirms it.

Sport still running the Neymar story. They say Bartomeu will meet with him to avoid him signing for P$G. Also, according to some "Lance" newspaper, Neymar said Brazilians in PSG that they'll play together.

Globo Esporte, among the most reliable outlets here in Brazil, claim Neymar has told close friends he’s off to PSG. This looks like some strong proof that the player is off to PSG and this board will suffer the biggest fuck you they could possibly get.

“You committed felonies to sign me, paid over €50m to my father, invented loads of lies and tarnished the club forever for it, now I’m off.” If only losing Neymar was a big problem, but between the criminal Rosell, this board and Cruyff’s legacy destroyed, it’s bloody nothing.

Curious to see how this will end… Barça are in the dark and this board could be set for a disaster of Figo proportions. According to Globo Esporte, Neymar to PSG started after the player was annoyed that Barça didn’t sign Lucas Lima and Coutinho. Seriously. If stuff like this is true, I sincerely think culés are out of their damn minds to approve and want this clownery to continue at the club. This isn’t another “get a pay raise” tactic, Barça already has the largest wage bill in club football, and they have to reduce it urgently. If they fail to reduce it, debt will pile up and would force the board to resign per club’s rules.

UOL says PSG offers Neymar up to €40m per year including bonuses and would use the player to promote the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. Biggest wages ever offer to a footballer by a landslide, same for the transfer fee. Brazilian outlets all over it. Lance says that PSG’s Brazilian players already know that Neymar will be playing with them this season. All main Brazilian sports outlets are simultaneously reporting rubbish? I find hard to believe, this is likely to be happening.
