According to a media report, Brazil’s soccer superstar Neymar plans to leave Paris Saint-Germain this summer. The 31-year-old offensive player made this decision together with his family and his advisors, the French newspaper “L’Équipe” reported on Monday. Neymar announced the decision to the top French club on Sunday. PSG announced the commitment of Benfica star Gonçalo Ramos on Monday evening.
The 22-year-old attacker is initially on a one-year loan from Benfica. Then there is a purchase option. Portuguese media had previously reported a purchase obligation, the transfer fee should be 65 million euros, a further 15 million euros could be added through bonus payments. The Portuguese soccer champions are already receiving a rental fee of 20 million euros, which is practically the first installment of the subsequent purchase amount, it said.
Neymar, meanwhile, is aiming for a return to FC Barcelona, where he played from 2013 to 2017. Most recently, Neymar said at the end of June that he expected to play for PSG next season. Now the Brazilian is said to have changed his mind. One reason for the decision is said to have been the protests by PSG fans in front of his residence. Neymar has had problems with the Parisian annexe in the past. According to media reports, the Saudi Arabian club Al-Hilal had recently expressed an interest in signing Neymar.
In Paris, the focus is currently on the transfer poker for superstar Kylian Mbappé. The Frenchman is under contract in Paris until the end of next season and could then move on a free transfer. He had declared that he did not want to extend the French capital club beyond that. Since then there has been speculation about an immediate change, at PSG he no longer has a sporting future.
Argentinian world champion Lionel Messi left PSG after the end of his contract and now plays for Inter Miami in the USA.
