Real Madrid are preparing a record-breaking 350 million euro offer for Paris Saint-Germain star Neymar according to reports in Spain.
Reports of a potential Real Madrid move for Neymar just refuse to go away.
Ever since he joined Paris Saint-Germain, there has been talk of the Brazilian returning to La Liga with Barcelona’s arch-rivals.
While they had somewhat died off in recent months, rumours have picked up again since Paris Saint-Germain’s Champions League exit.
The Paris giants were dramatically dumped out of the competition on Tuesday following a controversial last-gasp Man United penalty.
Neymar was so upset with the decision and result that he reportedly had to be restrained by PSG staff when confronting the referee following the game, with the player missing out due to injury.
Real Madrid were also knocked out of the Champions League in dramatic fashion on Tuesday night with Ajax winning 4-1 at the Bernabeu.
Now, both Neymar and Real Madrid’s paths could be about to cross.
€350million offer, 45million wage
According to SPORT, Real Madrid are preparing a record-breaking 350 million euro offer for Neymar.
Their report claims that Florentino Perez is ‘convinced’ that the fee would be irresistible for PSG’s owners.
Not only that, the player should be unable to turn down the deal with a 45 million euro wage over five years.
Their report reads ‘SPORT have learned that Real Madrid are prepared to spend 350 million euros to get the Brazilian out of PSG, where he still has three years on his contract. Los Blancos have been in touch with Neymar to explain their intentions.’
While it seems unlikely, stranger things have happened in football.
