Neymar and Barcelona managed to reach an agreement on the player's payment when he returns to play for the Spaniard. Neymar officially said a few days ago that he wanted to leave PSG (FRA) by the end of the European summer. With the season in Europe about to start, Barcelona moved ahead in negotiations with the star.
According to the Spanish TV program El Chiringuito, the Brazilian player and his former team reached a salary agreement whereby Neymar would receive 13 million euros (about R$ 70 million, at current prices) net per season plus bonuses , with a two-year contract, which can be renewed for another one.
Although the contract seems to be going in the right direction, it is not certain that the player will return to Barecelona. This is because the termination of the contract with PSG, his current club, has not yet been formalized. In addition, the athlete will have to wait for Barça to sell some players before the end of the transfer window.
As much as the desire is great, the Spanish team does not have the financial power to pay what the French are asking for the number 10 shirt. 320 million at current exchange rate), according to Transfermarket. It also has to be considered that no European club is willing to match the payment that the star receives at PSG. Per year, Neymar receives 40 million euros (almost R$ 216 million at current prices) from Parisians.
According to the Spanish television channel, both sides are optimistic about the deal and believe that Neymar will be a Barcelona player soon. Due to the virus, Neymar was out of field training on Tuesday and Wednesday, but did participate in activities on Thursday with PSG.

Flamengo idol Zico analyzed Flamengo's offensive transformation in 2025 under Filipe Luís. For the former player, the decision to position Arrascaeta closer to the box was crucial in boosting the club's attack. "Many teams have eliminated my position. There's no such thing as a player who plays with the center forward. What Filipe Luís is doing at Flamengo is putting Arrascaeta alongside the center forward ," stated the Galinho.
Zico on Arrascaeta at Flamengo: "he never scored so many goals"
The change had a direct impact on the Uruguayan's stats. In 18 Brasileirão appearances, Arrascaeta has 11 goals and 10 assists, totaling 21 direct contributions. The average is impressive: one contribution every 64 minutes on the pitch. According to Zico, the number 10 has never been so close to scoring: " Arrascaeta has never scored so many goals and never reached the box as much as he is now ."
Rubro-Negro arrives for the 22nd round buoyed by the historic 8-0 thrashing of Vitória, the biggest in the points-based era. As the sole leader, Filipe Luís's team faces Grêmio this Sunday (31), at 4 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã. On the other side, the Tricolor gaúcho is going through an unstable moment : it occupies only 14th place in the table and, after the elimination in the South American, focuses its forces exclusively on the Brasileirão.
FLAMENGO: Rossi; Varela, Leo Ortiz, Leo Pereira and Ayrton Lucas (Viña); Jorginho, Saul and Arrascaeta; Plata, Pedro and Samuel Lino. Coach: Filipe Luis.
GRÊMIO: Tiago Volpi; Marcos Rocha, Noriega, Kannemann and Marlon; Cuéllar, Dodi and Edenilson; Alysson, Carlos Vinicius (Braithwaite) and Cristian Olivera. Coach: Mano Menezes.

His most memorable moment came in November 2019, when he scored twice in the final against River Plate , securing his second continental championship. Since then, he has been called the "Immortal Rubro-Negro," a tag that still resonates among fans.
Even though he currently wears a different jersey, Gabriel Barbosa left the Red-Blacks as one of the club's all-time top scorers , ranking sixth on the all-time scoring charts. His career continues to be marked by his protagonism in decision-making and the adored fan base, establishing him as one of the club's greatest idols.
