Barcelona is trying to find a way to bring Neymar back to Camp Nou – without paying a cent.
With Real Madrid reportedly emerging as the front-runner to sign the star forward, Paris Saint-Germain confirmed on Saturday it was in "advanced" talks regarding a deal for the Brazilian.
It remains to be seen as to which of the La Liga giants Neymar ends up at, but Barcelona is struggling to find a deal, looking to complete one in which it pays with players only.
Barcelona is looking to secure a deal for Neymar that would see it give up only players, according to Marca and Le Parisien .
The French daily reports that kind of deal is "unimaginable" for PSG, which is looking for at least €200million for Neymar – which would see it make a €22m loss.
Meanwhile, AS says PSG and Real Madrid have opened talks regarding a move for Neymar, including the option of a one-year loan deal.
ROUND-UP
- With Mauro Icardi no longer wanted at Inter, a possible switch to Napoli has been mooted. Corriere dello Sport says Icardi is willing to make the move to Napoli, which is looking to sign a forward. Icardi has also been linked to Juventus.
- That comes as Napoli seemingly stop its pursuit of Real Madrid playmaker James Rodriguez. The Serie A club has given up on signing James and will instead focus on PSV forward Hirving Lozano, according to AS .
- David de Gea looked certain to extend his contract at Manchester United just last month. However, the Mirror reports the Premier League club is yet to reach an agreement with the goalkeeper, casting fresh doubt over the Spain international's future at Old Trafford.
- With previous target Leroy Sane suffering a serious knee injury, Bayern Munich is turning its attentions elsewhere as it still looks to sign replacements for departed stars Arjen Robben and Franck Ribery. The Bundesliga champion has reached an agreement with Inter to sign Ivan Perisic, according to Corriere dello Sport .
- Radamel Falcao is nearing a Monaco exit. The forward is set to sign a three-year deal worth €6m per season with Galatasaray, according to AS . However, the Ligue 1 club want to sign a replacement before letting Falcao leave, and are expecting to land Wissam Ben Yedder from Sevilla.
- Dani Olmo is expected to make a move from Dinamo Zagreb to one of Europe's biggest clubs during this transfer window. Sportske Novosti reported that Bayern Munich and Everton offered €28m for the Spain youth international and Manchester United put in a bid of €25m to land Olmo. However, Dinamo Zagreb is hoping Olmo can help it reach the Champions League group stage before selling the 21-year-old.
