Real Madrid are ready to spend a record 400 million euros on Paris Saint-Germain star Neymar, according to reports. They would have made Neymar as top priority to succeed current striker Cristiano Ronaldo on one or two years.
Ronaldo is still hoping to leave the Los Blancos and is searching for a new club, and Real Madrid’s president Florentino Perez has confirmed he very aware that the Ronaldo era will end very soon and ready for anything to find a successor size.
This sum, colossal, would include both the compensation and the salary of the player. The question is how can the reigning Champions League seriously consider betting the Brazilian star one or two years after PSG paid 222 million euros to Barcelona?
According to a Brazilian journalist, Marcelo Bechler, Neymar regrets the move. The Brazilian revealed he is unhappy in France for PSG lack of quality football in Ligue 1, while he also had a distraction at the club due to his harmonious relationship with PSG manager Unai Emery.
“There are a lot of high-ranking players in the dressing room, such as Cavani and Di Maria, and they have found Neymar’s behavior in these first month strange,” Bechelr said.
“The relationship between Neymar and his manager [Unai] Emery is distant, as it with some players. However, PSG are clear that anybody else would have to leave before Neymar goes.
“Today, there is no possibility that Neymar signs in the short term for Real Madrid. It could happen in 2 or 3 years. He wouldn’t consider that a betrayal. But right now this is just speculation.” Bechler added.
