PSG make Neymar decision as Todd Boehly drives £55million transfer

PSG have reportedly told Neymar he is no longer part of the club’s plans amid links to Chelsea.

According to reports in France, Paris Saint-Germain have advised Neymar that he is free to leave the club amid continued links with Chelsea.

Paris Saint-Germain have reportedly told Neymar that they no longer have need of his services in an extraordinary U-turn in recent years after begging him to stay.

There are big changes at the Parc des Princes with Mauricio Pochettino set to get the axe despite winning Ligue 1 in his first full season in charge at the club. A poor showing in the Champions League was enough to convince president Nasser Al-Khelaifi to cue ties.

OGC Nice boss Christophe Galtier has been cherrypicked to replace the former Tottenham manager after winning the title with Lille the year before the last season. He will reunite with Luis Campos, who also worked at the northern French team, in a major shuffle.

Neymar became the most expensive player in history when he moved to the French capital in 2017 from Barcelona. While there have been numerous moments of brilliance from the Brazilian in their club colours, he has been unable to help the team deliver the Champions League. 

Now reports would suggest that PSG are ready to part ways with Neymar, who earns a staggering £650,000-a-week.

Chelsea have been mentioned as a possible option and the 30-year-old is reportedly interested in a move to the London club.

The report goes on to state that Neymar was left angered by Al-Khelaifi’s comments made earlier in the summer when he spoke out on the shortcomings at PSG.

“A possible departure of Neymar this summer? What I can tell you is that we expect all players to do a lot more than last season. A lot more!”

“They all have to to be 100 per cent. Obviously, we weren’t good enough to go far. For next season, the objective is clear: to work every day at 200 per cent. To give everything we have for this jersey, give the maximum and we will see the result.
