Paris Saint-Germain forward, Neymar is set for a sensational return to the Camp Nou, according to the Daily Record, with the Catalan club offering either Philippe Coutinho or Ousmane Dembele in part exchange.

 

Barca sold Neymar to PSG for a fee of €222 million two summers ago, and they're now looking to offload either Dembele or Coutinho, both of whom have disappointed this season, in an effort to get reacquainted with the Brazilian.

 

ESPN says Barca will need to cover Neymar's eye-watering salary of €30m a year after tax, although the PSG forward himself has made no secret of his desire to return to Spain.

 

PSG were reluctant to let their star man go, but their stance appears to have softened this year, a development that may have been occasioned by reports of dressing room unrest, alongside the club's repeated failures in Europe.

 

After their disappointing exit to Manchester United, PSG won just three of their last 10 league games, which could prompt a shake-up in the French capital. The club could be tempted if they can strike the right deal and land the right player in return.
