Neymar has not played for PSG this season as he’s presently recovering from the ankle injury that he sustained at the start of last month.

His preference is to return to Spanish La Liga champions Barcelona but arch rivals Real Madrid are also interested in a move for him.

Both Barcelona and Real Madrid are finding it hard to raise the necessary funds required to sign him.

PSG are keen to recoup the €220m spent on his transfer from Barcelona in the summer of 2017.

The transfer from Barcelona to PSG made him the most expensive player in world football.

Barcelona legend Rivaldo has blamed star player Lionel Messi for the exit of former Liverpool midfielder Philippe Coutinho from the club earlier this week, Goal reports.

According to him, Coutinho failed to thrive at Barcelona mainly due to the dynamics at the Spanish La Liga club.

Rivaldo pointed out that Philippe Coutinho was unable to survive at a Barcelona squad whose main man is Lionel Messi.

It is difficult to shine in a team that has Messi, as he takes the shine and responsibility at the club.

Philippe Coutinho became the most expensive Barcelona signing in January 2018 after the Catalans agreed to a £142m deal for him.
