Unfortunately for Paris, which dreams of getting rid of its star’s XXL salary, the Premier League clubs have not taken action to recruit Neymar or at least not yet. Saudi Arabia, which solves many problems of degreasing in certain clubs like Chelsea, has not rendered this service to PSG either. Anyway, the ‘Ney’ made it known to his management that he would not go anywhere and that he wanted to stay in Europe, very clearly refusing to join the Saudi Pro League when this country begins to send monstrous salaries to convince stars to come.
Barca refused Neymar’s advances

Barcelona coach thinks signing PSG player could blast ‘un group currently very close-knit and where there is a good atmosphere. “A blow for the number 10 of Paris, who saw himself returning to Catalonia this summer, but who will finally have to resolve to stay one more season in the French capital.
Some believe, however, that there is hope of seeing the great Neymar of the Barcelona era again with the arrival of Luis Enrique, his former coach with the Blaugrana. The former coach of Spain is the last who can still maintain the illusion of seeing Neymar shine again one day in the jersey of Paris Saint-Germain.
