Barcelona Transfer News: Latest Rumours on Neymar and Marco Verratti

Rob BlanchetteJul 25, 2017

Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain have scheduled press conferences for Tuesday night, as the futures of Neymar andย Marco Verratti remain undecided.ย 

Ben Pringleย of theย Daily Expressย reported PSG's presser will be held at 10 p.m. BST (5 p.m. ET), andย Barcaย will make their announcement 30 minutes later.

The scheduling has fired the imagination of football fans, with PSG reportedly willing to activate Neymar's ยฃ196 million release clause, per Pringle.ย Verratti could move in the opposite direction after the Blaugrana's long-term pursuitย of the talented Italian.

Spanish paperย ASย (h/t theย Daily Express'ย Charles Perrin) reported the French giants have prepared a contract for Neymar to sign and believe a deal could be imminent.

Per Diario Golย (h/tย Joel Watsonย of theย Daily Star), PSG will offer ยฃ90 million plusย Verratti for Neymar's services, aiding them to overcome financial fair play regulations that could smooth any deal.

Squawka's Muhammad Butt passed comment on what could happen between both parties:

Neymar scored 17 goals in La Liga and the UEFA Champions League last term, according toย WhoScored.com, but Barca failed in Spain and Europe as Real Madrid were triumphant.

The potential exit of the Brazil international would be one of the biggest shocks in football history, but Neymar has lived in the shadow of Lionel Messi since arriving in Europe.

The forward wants to further his claim as the greatest on the planet, and at Barca, he will always be fighting for top billing.

PSG have their own problems after losing the Ligue 1 title to Monaco, and their lack of superstars has seen them fall down the pecking order at home and abroad.

A trade involving Neymar andย Verratti would make perfect sense, allowing both teams to rebuild ahead of the new campaign.
