Neymar has reached an agreement to sign for Saudi Arabia Pro League side Al-Hilal and will earn a reported €90M annually.
The Brazilian, who is 31 years old, is on the verge of signing a two-year contract with the Saudi Arabian side, worth a staggering €180 million (£146 million).
Recall we reported in out Daily Transfer Update Al Hilal must now agree on the terms of the transfer before the deal is completed.
However, fresh reports claims that a deal worth €90 million (£82 million) is close to being agreed with the Brazil International.
Well, it now appears that his time in France is coming to an end, as he is set to follow the footstep of the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema and Riyad Mahrez in leaving Europe for the Middle East.
The former Barcelona player is not thought to be a key player under PSG’s new head coach Luis Enrique as he builds a new side.
Paris Saint-Germain are open to selling the former Santos man so that Enrique can focus on building a younger team.
The Saudi Pro team have been in the transfer market this summer, having already signed Ruben Neves, Kalidou Koulibaly, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic and Malcom.
However, the potential transfer of Neymar will be their biggest arrival of the summer.
Should the Brazilian depart PSG, it means that Mbappe stays at the club for at least a season, having been ‘reinstated’ into the first-team squad following ‘positive’ discussions.
PSG Agree Deal To Sell Brazil Forward To Al-Hilal
Paris St-Germain have reportedly agreed a deal to sell Neymar to Saudi side Al-Hilal for a fee understood to be about 90m euros (£77.6m) plus add-ons.
Neymar joined PSG for a world record fee of 222m Euros in 2017 but he was on the bench in PSG’s opener against Lorient on Saturday.
New coach Luis Enrique has also reiterated that the Brazilian international among others are not on his plans for the new season.
