  • PSG and Neymar are looking to part ways within the shortest possible time as the new season looms
  • The Ligue 1 champions have set a minimum amount they want to sell Neymar
  • The 31-year-old has been linked with a return to Barcelona amid interest from Al-Hilal and the MLS

Paris Saint-Germain are prepared to cut their losses with Neymar Jr, as the current Ligue 1 titleholders are poised to part ways with the Brazilian football sensation before the transfer window concludes.

Recent reports suggest that PSG have established a minimum valuation for their prized asset, responding to transfer speculation that links him to both Barcelona and Chelsea.

Back in 2017, the Ligue 1 champions made history by investing £200 million to secure Neymar's services from Barcelona.

Nonetheless, after a duration of seven years, the Paris-based club have reached the decision that granting permission for the 31-year-old to move on is the suitable course of action.

According to acclaimed transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano, both Neymar and the Parisians are actively collaborating to swiftly determine the optimal solution for parting ways this summer.

The report further details that Ney has received proposals from Saudi Pro League giants Al-Hilal, in addition to offers from the Major League Soccer, where his close friend Lionel Messi currently plies his trade.

Meanwhile, Barcelona, reportedly keen on reacquiring the Brazilian playmaker, find themselves at a crossroads, deliberating whether to initiate a bidding endeavour for him amidst the financial complexities currently afflicting the club.

However, Neymar's father has contradicted these notions, asserting that his son has no intention of departing from PSG this summer.

Relatedly, Sports Brief reported that PSG will listen to offers of between £50m and £80m for Neymar as they continue their plan to restructure the club by selling off their unwanted players this summer.

Barcelona, the Spanish champions, and Premier League giants Chelsea have been mentioned as probable destinations if Neymar does leave PSG this summer, despite his contract deal expiring in 2025.

Neymar unhappy with PSG fans

Sports Brief reported that back in May, Neymar faced a distressing situation when he was confronted by numerous PSG ultras outside his residence, who were urging him to depart from the club.

Neymar expressed discontent over what he perceives as PSG's failure to adequately protect their players, with the aforementioned incident being a significant example.
