Paris Saint-Germain have rejected a €190 million offer from Barcelona that would see Neymar return to Nou Camp on a loan, sources have told ESPN FC.
Barca offered an upfront sum of €40m cash for the loan with a future obligation of €150m to permanently sign the Brazilian star from the French champions next summer, sources have said.
Another source close to the negotiation told ESPN FC that Barca's offer was indeed rejected, but claimed that the offer only reached €170m, and was for a two-year loan with an option to permanently sign after each year.
Sources had told ESPN on Monday that PSG were going to reject the La Liga side's offer whenever it came through, and it appears that has been the case.
There is also the belief in Paris that Barcelona will not be able to pay the transfer fee in one lump sum next summer should they make the move permanent and would ask to pay in annual installments, which is not ideal for the French club.
PSG sporting director Leonardo is trying to get as much money in cash as possible for Neymar, hoping to recoup at least €200m.
Sources say Neymar is trying to stay positive but he knows that a deal to see him returning to the Camp Nou is getting more and more difficult.

I hope big players would sign for PSG after this complicate soap opera. Although negotiation is key in business,image is also very important too because that is what sustains business apart from quality service or product. When a club is seen to be too rigid in negotiation,it stands the risk of being avoided in the future. Young players would learn from Neymar's case and avoid PSG if care is not taken. It is always good to make exit door open but I understand their predicament cause Neymar is a big investment.

it's so sad and infuriating that the tei presumed world class players that were recruited to replaced Neymar were flop . .. one is gone, the other one quite the is irrigating. Barca fans may accuse Valverde for all his naivety and cowardice at Barca far... boldly agreed... human Coutihno was largely played off position, agreed! he was missed managed, agreed! But if anyone had followed this player back at Liverpool, by pundit's map illustration about his involvement in pitch, he largely covered exact areas and proportion at Liverpool as at barca. Countless times Coutinho played in attacking midfield role... Arthur melo handed this guy time improve but seemed weak and pessimistic all the time. Only Neymar can take the work load off Messi

I think the disagreement Here is the loan period which barcelona are offering, PSG want a year loan that guarantees full payment of compulsory option to buy within a year, barcelona is offering two years which the installments will be divided within too years, considering the situation barcelona is unnecessarily slowing negotiations we all know the loan offer for full purchase next year is a great deal to start with.
