Neymar will reportedly receive a two-year deal that comes with a €150 million annual salary. The agreement also comes with an option for a third year.

PSG was open to selling Neymar this summer as Ligue 1 champions work on revamping their roster under new head coach Luis Enrique. They held talks with Chelsea about the 31-year-old player, but the Premier League side was only interested in a loan move.

Al Hilal, on the other hand, was more than ready to part ways with a big transfer fee. They previously missed out on a number of targets, including Lionel Messi, and were eager to make a splash. With Neymar, they are now getting a star player still in his prime.

Neymar spent the past six seasons with Paris Saint-Germain after joining the French club in a world-record transfer from Barcelona. The Brazilian struggled to remain healthy during that time but was efficient when on the field. He helped PSG win five national titles while scoring 118 goals.

Neymar was stretchered off the field during PSG’s dramatic 4-3 win against Lilli last month, with scans later revealing that he had suffered some damaged ligaments. His recovery was expected to take between two and three weeks.

When asked at a news conference on Friday about the likelihood of Neymar’s return ahead of the Champions League match, manager Christophe Galtier replied: “No, I think he is out against Bayern.”

In addition, Neymar has not engaged in any intensive treatment and rehabilitation aimed at helping him to become match fit ahead of Wednesday’s clash.

The Brazilian missed PSG’s 3-0 victory over Marseille on Sunday and will also be absent from the Ligue 1 leaders’ game against Nantes on Saturday night.

Prior to the clash, Neymar scored PSG’s second goal in what ended up being a dramatic 4-3 win, with PSG coming from behind to win the game at the death. Kylian Mbappe drew PSG level in the 87th minute while Lionel Messi won the game for Ligue 1 leaders five minutes into stoppage time.

The same ankle that Neymar damaged during the 2022 World Cup, this is the latest in a string of injury setbacks faced by PSG. Star striker Mbappe returned to the team during the midweek 1-0 loss to Bayern Munich in the Champions League after being injured on February 1. Now, the team faces the prospect of playing the second leg of their Champions League clash against Bayern without another star player.

Following the deterioration of relations between Neymar and PSG, the club’s president Nasser al Khelaifi reportedly met with Chelsea co-owner Todd Boehly in Paris earlier in the week to discuss the potential transfer of Neymar to the Premier League club.

Neymar expressed his desire to leave PSG during the last transfer window, however, he was unable to find a club willing to take him on. He remains under contract with the Ligue 1 giants until June 20247 in a deal worth €30 million a year.

Despite his high wage and the longevity of his contract, Neymar has fallen out of favor with the club. As a result, both he and PSG’s owners are on the hunt for a new club for the 31-year-old player.

Prior to Boehly’s interest in Neymar, former Chelsea head coach Thomas Tuchel expressed his desire to bring Neymar to Stamford Bridge. This time, however, both clubs are making moves to progress the deal, with Al Khelaifi and Boehly meeting in a luxury hotel near the Arc de Triomphe for lunch to discuss the deal as well as the failed transfer of Hakim Ziyech to Paris at the end of the January transfer window.

Neymar and PSG have been in negotiations for several weeks now and they quickly came to the overall terms of the deal. They are currently working on the finer details and the official confirmation is expected in coming days.

Neymar recently hinted at this development during his appearance on French network TF1 over the weekend.

“I am happy today. I am truly happy,” said Neymar. “Things have changed a lot. I can’t exactly explain why. But today, I am feeling good. I have adapted. I am calmer and I am happier. I want to stay at PSG.”

Neymar has been linked with a move away from Paris Saint-Germain for the better part of the past two years. It seemed that the player was unhappy in France, and a return to Barcelona was looking like a done deal at one point. Media also reported about his clash with the club’s brass, most notably sporting director Leonardo.

However, things changed in recent months, as Neymar and Leonardo improved their relationship. Also, Barca has had financial difficulties due to coronavirus, which made it difficult for them to pull off a deal.

Neymar has played 16 games in all competitions with PSG, scoring 13 goals and adding five assists.

The Brazilian superstar, who has dealt with multiple leg injuries throughout his career, was taken down after a hard challenge by Thiago Mendes in stoppage time as PSG looked to push for an equalizer.

Mendes was shown a red card for the tackle while Neymar laid on the ground crying, leading many to assume the worst about an injury that looked to be very serious.

While no injury is good news, PSG and its fans were given a bit of reassurance on Monday, after the team announced that initial testing had revealed the 27-year-old star’s injury to be an ankle sprain.

No specific severity was given, nor was a timeline for his return to the pitch, but the team did state in its press note that more testing would be carried out on Wednesday.

PSG, who was drawn to face FC Barcelona in Round 16 of the Champions League, and currently a point behind Lille and Lyon for first place in Ligue 1, hope that their star forward will be able to return shortly.

Neymar has scored 9 goals and provided 5 assists in 12 Ligue 1 and Champions League matches so far this season.

Barca tried to bring back Neymar this summer, but their offers fell short. Paris Saint-Germain was reportedly only interested in money, while the Spanish powerhouse was trying to get them to accept player exchange + cash offer.

Mundo Deportivo reports that Barcelona sees Neymar as a successor for Lionel Messi, and want the 27-year-old to be their cornerstone in years to come. However, the media outlet adds that the club will make a definitive decision after seeing how the player will perform with PSG in the second part of the season.

Neymar joined PSG in 2017 from Barca in a transfer worth $247 million. Since then, he made 70 appearances for the club and scored 60 goals, while winning two Ligue 1 trophies. Despite this success, the player is reportedly unhappy in France and would welcome a change of scenery.

In a recent chat with Spain’s Sport, Messi said that he would “like” to have Neymar back and expressed doubt that Barcelona “did all they could.”

“I would have liked for Neymar to have returned,” – said Messi. “Honestly, I’m not sure if Barca did all they could to sign him but I know it is difficult to negotiate with PSG.”

This, however, doesn’t mean Messi isn’t happy with the club’s current squad.

“I am not disappointed. We have a spectacular squad that can challenge for all, even without Ney.” – he added.

Neymar played four seasons with Barcelona, before leaving to PSG in a record-breaking transfer worth $247 million. The Brazilian, however, never managed to settle in France, and wasn’t shy about expressing his intent to leave this summer.

Barcelona was engaged in talks with PSG, but they failed to make a good enough offer to the Ligue 1 powerhouse. Several options were reportedly on the table, including player exchange and loan with an obligation to buy, but PSG didn’t like any of them and decided to hold onto Neymar at least until January.

The 27-year-old star was cited by the Parisian club to show up for training on the first day of practice in preparation for the 2019-20 campaign along with the team’s other players that did not participate in summer international tournaments. However, the enigmatic forward was a no-show on the first day of practice, provoking a ominous statement by PSG.

The club’s statement was short and sweet to the point. “Paris Saint-Germain notes that Neymar Jr was not in attendance at the agreed time and place. This was without the club’s prior authorisation. The club regrets this situation and will therefore take appropriate action.”

While Neymar might want out of the French capital, PSG doesn’t plan to tolerate him turning this transfer window into a circus.

Neymar’s family, on the other hand, claims that the club knew that the Brazilian forward wouldn’t show up for practice on Monday due to “commitments” in his home country.

In any case, this saga took another unexpected twist on Monday. It’s clear that while Neymar might want to move on and join his former club in Barcelona this transfer window, his current club won’t be willing to lie down and accept his shenanigans.

Neymar Jr., the flamboyant forward for Ligue 1’s top team, has been diagnosed with a broken fifth metatarsal in his right foot.

The Brazilian player’s injury puts Paris Saint Germain in a difficult spot.

Neymar will miss both legs of PSG’s Round of 16 Champions League bout. The Parisian club drew a tough opponent in the Round of 16 against Manchester United.

This is the second time in the past two years that Neymar has sustained an hurt to the same bone. He was injured in the same place in January of 2018 as well.

This inopportune injury takes away PSG’s star player at the worst time, considering their upcoming draw against Manchester United. The ex-Barcelona Star ranks 4th in Ligue 1 with 14 goals this season.

Neymar has led PSG to a comfortable lead in France’s Ligue 1 this season. They currently maintain a 13-point lead over Lille.

Doctors expect Neymar to return to the field in April. It’s unclear if he would return in time for the next Champions League round if PSG advances.
