Real Madrid hold secret negotiations with PSG winger Neymar
Real Madrid’s transfer plans have taken a significant turn after they have held secret talks with Brazil international Neymar Jr.
Paris Saint-Germain winger Neymar seems to have grown fed up with life in France. The Real Madrid target has had nearly six months of his two-year career at PSG ruined by injuries and that has seen Kylian Mbappe grab the limelight ahead of him in the team. By every passing day, it is looking as if Neymar is moving further away from Paris.

With that said, the board of directors at the Parc de Princes also are not seemingly bothered by Neymar’s situation and there is a greater urgency and desire being shown to hold onto Kylian Mbappe than the Brazil international. This is something which has not impressed Neymar and so he will be looking for pathways to exit the club.
Real Madrid’s interest in Neymar is evergreen as always and in spite of Zinedine Zidane’s flat refusal in signing him, Florentino Perez is like a man on the mission of signing the winger. However, Manchester United are creeping in as late customers for him and some secret negotiations have already been held, as per reports.
The Red Devils are looking to make their team look a lot more competitive and glamorous next season and feel that Neymar could be the epitome of their required characteristic. Manchester United’s main sponsor in Chevrolet could play a huge part in the negotiations, but Neymar’s friends- Vinicius and Marcelo- being at Madrid make United second favourites.
There is a feeling inside the Real Madrid dressing room that the club must break the bank and sign Neymar rather than Sadio Mane or Paul Pogba. First of all, the 27-year-old is an extremely marketable player. And secondly, Madrid could create a huge Galactico impact, similar to the time when they signed Luis Figo as Neymar is an ex-Barcelona product.
With Manchester United hovering over the former Santos and Barcelona winger, Florentino Perez is looking to spend 300 million euros and get Neymar’s services to the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium. The players in Real Madrid’s dressing room are aware of that and are only waiting for Zinedine Zidane’s green signal.
Should Real Madrid close in on Neymar’s signatures if he is available at 300 million euros?
