Neymar is also said to be interested in a move away from Barcelona as he wants to become the main man at a club and believes it is impossible to do so at the Nou Camp because of Messi.
The Brazilian wants to move out of Messi’s shadow and PSG are prepared to build their squad around the Brazilian’s considerable talent going forward.
Manchester United have also been linked with triggering the Brazilian’s release clause in the past and it remains to be seen whether they show any interest if Neymar truly becomes available this summer.
