Neymar has reportedly demanded an extra £1million a week to stay at PSG. Real Madrid have earmarked the 26-year-old as the long-term replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo. And according to the Sunday Times , Neymar has told his club they must treble his weekly wages to keep him in Paris.
Brazilian striker Neymar has asked Paris Saint-Germain for a pay rise as a condition for staying at the Qatar-owned club for a second season. The player’s father is understood to have proposed that PSG improve his son’s financial terms amid Real Madrid’s efforts to bring him back to Spanish football.
PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi and sporting director Antero Henrique flew to Brazil last week, ostensibly to attend a presentation at Neymar’s charitable institute. According to a PSG source, the pair held discussions about the forward’s future at the club he joined just eight months ago for a record transfer fee of nearly £200m, and a basic salary of more than £264.5m over five years.
Neymar’s debut season ended last month when he fractured a metatarsal. The 26-year-old is said to have flown back to Brazil for surgery amid threats that he would not return to France for a second campaign with PSG, who were recently knocked out of the Champions League by Real Madrid.
Madrid have been openly courting Neymar for several months, with the European champions’ president Florentino Perez using December’s Ballon d’Or award ceremony to publicly pitch for his services.
“Being in Madrid would make it easier to win the Ballon d’Or,” said Perez. “Real Madrid is a club which gives all you need as a big player. Everybody knows that I already wanted to sign him at one point.”
Madrid’s renewed pursuit of the Brazilian has come during a season pockmarked by evidence of Neymar’s discontent in Paris. There has been on- and off-field tension between the forward and leading goalscorer Edinson Cavani, whom the Brazil international wanted to supplant from penalty and free-kick duties.
Neymar complained about coach Unai Emery’s tactics, man management and refusal to allow him to skip certain matches. On more than one occasion, the forward unilaterally declared himself unfit to play. PSG have stated that they will not sell a player who they have made made central to Qatar’s ambitions of winning the Champions League.

Reus and Neymar are somewhat similar in age but Reus is not a man of money . He knows he can't win any trophies with Dortmund but than also he made a contract till 2023 . Reus plays for his passion not for money

why should PSG add ur wages? After not even taking them to The quarter finals of the Champions League? Abrahamovic did better than you.

I'm sorry/sad to say this.... so greedy, now PSG must be regretted they paid so much for his service, and yet, less than a year into his contract, he's demanding more in order for him to stay and play for them. In fact, they can still be the Ligue champions whether with him or without him. The most important Champions League trophy are out of reach already in this season. Take care, Psg

this is terrible. he was there when Madrid crushed them in the first round 3:1. what has he done to help PSG despite his huge signing and wages? very soon the world cup is coming he will still do nothing for Brazil. he's just too money minded but no results to show for. I advise Madrid to go for Lewandowski not neymar

He is a fantastic player and a fine playmaker .. He have won trophies under GOAT's shadow... But he should prove his ability to win titles..Ligue 1 is doesn't matter. Champions league is huge honor. He should win Champions league for PSG.. Than he can demand everything..

He moved to psg because people think he is always in Messi's shadow. But when in psg he then realised that almost every player in this planet earth is in Messi's shadow no matter where you play. Now the young wants back to his former employers 😞😞😕

I saw this coming the moment PSG gave him all of those unnecessary preferential treatments... Someone who is naturally egoistic then got a formal boost of ego. PSG only have themselves to blame, for it is their mess. Let them clean it up. And as for Neymar, he may never smell the Balloon D'or because of his pride. Even if he manages to get it once, his ego will make him self-destruct. There are lot of fantastic players with cool heads across the globe which shoots themselves into limelight sporadically. Who could have thought Mo Sallah who costs Liverpool as low as €30 million would be this hot this season? That's the game for you. Neymar really has to keep his head down if he must win an individual major.

if this happens it proves neymar dosen't play football he plays with money and there is no need of such footballer in laliga we are good with the talents we have which are the best currently and in PSG he may win a ligue1 20times but can't win champions league even once in his life against Barcelona and real Madrid and will not win any individual trophy to until these two legends are around
