Arrived at Paris Saint-Germain from FC Barcelona during the 2017 summer transfer window, striker Neymar (28 years old, 4 games and 2 goals in L1 this season) was very close to returning to the Blaugrana in 2019. In the columns of the Catalan daily Mundo Deportivo this Sunday, the former leader of Barça Javier Bordas confided his truths in this file.
“If it was serious for Neymar’s return? Yes, yes, really serious. I personally made the trip and we really wanted his return, we tried in every way possible. We were very close. PSG us made an offer when he never accepted anything for Verratti, Marquinhos or Thiago Silva … This is not a club that sells its players. We were so close that Neymar thought he was going to come back, I thought so too. There was still a difference compared to the money requested by his father, but above all the clubs failed to find an agreement to complete the operation, “said Bordas.
