Everything is moving forward in the Neymar saga. Early this morning it was revealed that Barça officials (Javier Bordas, Eric Abidal and Andre Cury) were flying out to speak with PSG's director of football, Leonardo. SPORT can now reveal that the message to wrap things up quickly regarding Neymar's exit has come from PSG's president Al-Khelaifi. They want it done as soon as possible.

The French club, after seeing the reaction from their supporters towards Neymar, want the Brazilian gone at all costs. He won't even train with them anymore. PSG just want the money in order to sign a replacement. This desperation to resolve the situation means Barça have overtaken Real Madrid in the race for Neymar. 

 

Barça are offering Coutinho in part-exchange but would also be open to a loan deal with an obligation to make it permanent next summer.
