It is still far from clear when the international transfer windows will open this summer. And whether they still open under the special circumstances surrounding the corona crisis.

Flashback: In August 2017, Neymar switched from Barcelona to PSG for the record sum of 222 million euros. In the city of love, however, Neymar, who has a contract until 2022, never really finds happiness. He does his job, but always draws attention to himself with scandals.

“Anti-Madrid” pact
A return to Barça will become an issue again in summer 2019. At the time, however, arch-rival Real Madrid was also involved in signing Neymar. Of course, that doesn’t suit the Catalans. For example, they are said to have concluded an “anti-Madrid” pact with the Brazilian, with which, according to the Spanish specialist magazine “Mundo Deportivo”, they promise Neymar to bring him back in summer 2020 instead.

Now this summer is coming. And Neymar still has the logo with the Eiffel Tower on the chest. According to media reports, the tricky ball artist is even willing to forego 13 million euros of his PSG content in Barcelona. So instead of 37 only 24 million bags per year. There is talk of a demanded transfer of around 150 million euros. For his part, Barça is hoping for a player exchange in order to squeeze the transfer fee due to the currently difficult financial situation. One of the two Frenchmen, Antoine Griezmann (29) or Ousmane Dembélé (22), would obviously be the equivalent.

But: The PSG is now breaking off all talks with Barcelona about a possible transfer. The corona crisis and expiring contracts are too busy at the moment, and the focus is on the season that is currently interrupted.
