Neymar is in the news on and off the field. Away from the pitch, the Brazilian star has been battling assault allegations, while on it he is said to be on the radar of Barcelona and Real Madrid.

Reports have emerged that Lionel Messi is pushing for Neymar’s return to his old club. Antoine Griezmann has been linked with a move to Camp Nou but Messi is reportedly keen on the Brazilian.

However, all those plans could come to a standstill with PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi reportedly unwilling to sell Neymar, who joined the club on a then record €222m deal.

Radio Monte Carlo Sport stated that Al-Khelaifi has declared Neymar ‘non-transferable’.

Meanwhile, COPE have claimedthat some Barcelona players are also in favour of Neymar returning to the club ahead of Griezmann.

Griezmann announced that he was to leave Atletico Madrid last month, but Barca interest has seemingly cooled off.
