The Brazilian superstar's future is set to be one of this summer's hot topics
Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United have held talks over a possible move to Old Trafford for Neymar this summer, according to L'Equipe in France. The French champions are on the verge of a historic 11th title in Ligue 1 but this season has been an abject failure overall and the capital club are prepared to allow the Brazil international to leave.
Neymar, 31, arrived at Parc des Princes back in 2017 for a world record fee of nearly $240 million from Barcelona but the switch has not truly worked for either PSG or the South American. Les Parisiens were ready to let Neymar go last summer when Christophe Galtier arrived as head coach with Luis Campos appointed as sporting advisor but the Brazilian was reluctant to go.
However, after a disappointing FIFA 2022 World Cup, another injury-hit season and supporter unrest which resulted in chanting outside of Neymar's home, a departure is more possible than ever. PSG have the man from Mogi das Cruzes contracted until 2027 but Kylian Mbappe has become the undisputed top dog since the deal until 2025 was signed in 2021 with two optional years added since.
