Neymar ‘crazy’ at idea of rejoining Barcelona from PSG

Neymar ‘is crazy’ about the idea of leaving Paris Saint-Germain to rejoin Barcelona this summer, according to El Mundo Deportivo.

It follows on from a report earlier this week from RAC1 journalist Gerard Romero has that conversations have opened between the clubs for a swap deal between Neymar and Barca forward Ousmane Demebele, with Diario Sport confirming such news.

Brazilian star Neymar left the Camp Nou for Paris in the summer of 2017 for a world record €222m fee, with Dembele later joining the Blaugrana in a deal reportedly worth in the region of €140m.

Neymar has continually been linked with a return to Spain since his departure with the Catalan giants and Real Madrid said to be keen on a future transfer.

A report in Marca earlier this week claimed the Catalan giants were open to the possibility of selling Dembele this summer, while the future of Philippe Coutinho is also under scrutiny.

The 22-year-old has been limited to just 32 starts in La Liga from a possible 76 matches due to a number of injuries, while he has also reportedly been the subject of disciplinary issues.

Coutinho has struggled badly for form since his €160m switch from Liverpool in January 2018 and has been heavily linked with an exit from the club.
