The Neymar transfer saga continues to linger in the football media. Paris Saint-Germain is reportedly open to letting the player leave, but a departure can be challenging.
Reports suggest that a return to FC Barcelona could be in the cards. Nonetheless, Relevo’s Matteo Moretto reports that the prospect of such a reunion remains complex and convoluted.
Despite Neymar’s historic connection with Barcelona and his successful stint with the team before his move to PSG, numerous obstacles lie in the path of this reunion.
The Catalan side’s financial constraints pose significant challenges and could be a major stumbling block in any negotiation. Also, the final say on Neymar’s potential return to Barcelona rests with manager Xavi Hernandez.
Xavi has yet to approve the move, further adding to the uncertainty surrounding this high-profile transfer. Meanwhile, PSG’s manager, Luis Enrique, has approved Neymar’s departure.
With the summer transfer window closing on Sept. 1, a few weeks are left for all parties involved to work out a transfer that satisfies everyone involved.
