Neymar will have to satisfy 2 conditions to return to Barcelona
Brazilian hotshot Neymar is being tipped for a return to F.C. Barcelona after growing frustrated with life at Paris Saint-Germain.
Paris Saint-Germain superstar Neymar Jr. forced an exit from Barcelona a year and a half ago to move to France for an estimated fee of 220 million pounds, a world record. The main reason for the forward’s departure was the pretext that he wanted to get out of Lionel Messi’s shadow and be the central figure at a club.
However, the emergence of Kylian Mbappe and a cold relationship with Edinson Cavani has meant that the 26-year-old is considering his future in the French league and prefers returning to Spain.

Barcelona is the club alongside Real Madrid who are willing to sign him and Neymar, as well as the club, is open for the move in spite of leaving the Camp Nou by displaying immature conduct.
According to reports now, Barcelona are ready to formulate the Brazil international’s arrival in Catalonia once again but they have placed two conditions in front of Neymar which he would have to fulfil if he wants to return to Spain.
The first one of those is that Neymar will have to force an exit completely on his own, thereby sending out a signal that he was at fault in going to Paris. Barcelona clearly doesn’t intend to go further south in their relationship with the French champions and want Neymar to do so through a public announcement before his exit.
The second condition requires Neymar to accept a contract of lesser wages than what he earns currently at Paris Saint-Germain. That is because Barcelona will have to pay a huge transfer fee knowing that PSG will want to profit on their investment of over 200 million pounds which would be only two years old in the next summer.
Barcelona is not in a position to compete with Paris Saint-Germain who are clearly drowning in a truckload of money. That means that Neymar will have to agree upon a lower wage or stay in Paris.
A reunion between Barcelona and Neymar is far away from sealed but it does look like the Catalans are ready to welcome him in, especially with Luis Suarez ageing and there is no clarity on Ousmane Dembele’s future.
Is Barcelona not maintaining their dignity and self-respect by being ready to re-sign Neymar after the way he left?
