£500M NEYMAR
PSG’s incredible offer for Barca superstar
NEYMAR will cost Paris Saint-Germain almost £500million after details emerged of his astronomical proposed move from Barcelona. Arsenal star Alexis Sanchez is still a
major target for PSG’s billionaire backers, alongside the Brazilian.
The mind-boggling deal for Neymar – funded by PSG’s Qatari owners – doubles the total cost of football’s previous biggest overall transfer.
Cristiano Ronaldo’s £80m move from Manchester United to Real Madrid has cost the Spanish giants £240m over the last eight years.
The scale of the Neymar deal has
scared off United and Manchester City. Barca thought the £196m buy-out clause would deter ANY suitors.
But they never bargained on PSG’s determination to land one of the top three stars on the planet – Lionel Messi, Ronaldo (above) or Neymar.
PSG will have to unload stars to fund Neymar and Chile hitman Sanchez with former Real Madrid and United star Angel di Maria a likely casualty.
