Not even Cristiano Ronaldo can stop Neymar rejoining Barcelona

The Juventus forward can do many things, however, tormenting Barcelona is not one of them anymore…
It’s been a busy summer transfer window and one man who is spoken about above the rest is Neymar. The former Barcelona man, now of Paris Saint-Germain, is involved in a transfer scupper. It’s thought that Barcelona wants to re-sign him but so do Juventus. Even Real Madrid was interested before they signed Eden Hazard.
According to the Daily Star, Cristiano Ronaldo has been in contact with Neymar, trying to get him to sign for Juventus. However, the Brazilian winger is not having any of his charms, since he has his heart set on a move back to Camp Nou.

Neymar spent four successful seasons with the Catalans. During his time in La Liga, he was part of one of the most fierce trios of all time, known as ‘MSN’, partnered with Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez. The three of them won three Copa del Rey trophies, one La Liga title and of course, the prestigious Champions League honour.
It was bizarre to see him take the plunge and join Ligue 1, however, he made his reasons clear. He wanted a challenge to lift the Champions League with the Parisians. Two years later, he has not achieved this feat, but he has progressed as a player.
Neymar is one of the best in the world at what he does. He’s a very skilful player, with flair in abundance. It seems that no matter the situation, the Brazilian will always find a way out of it using his wide skill range.
He is also incredibly quick and has the ability to cut inside, taking on the shot himself. He is perhaps the most complete winger in world football, so Barcelona should be looking to welcome him back with open arms.
Many Barcelona fans question his loyalty, and rightly so after he left the club. However, the fact that he is turning down offers from Cristiano Ronaldo himself shows that he is willing to pledge his loyalty to Camp Nou yet again.
Do you think Neymar will re-sign for Barcelona this year?
