Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino’s previous experience coaching Neymar while at PSG. Furthermore, Thiago Silva’s familiarity with the Brazilian forward from their shared stint at PSG and the national team could play a role in the potential transfer.

Neymar’s future at PSG could depend on various factors, including his ambitions, the Ligue 1 side’s long-term plans, and the potential acquisition of suitable replacements.

Newly appointed manager Luis Enrique will likely have a say regarding whether he sees Neymar as part of his project. The Spanish manager did have the player during his time at Barcelona, but perhaps his opinion about the PSG star has changed.
