And Abidal has now made it clear that Barcelona are interested in a reunion with the Brazilian forward nearly three years after selling him to PSG for a world-record £198million fee.

Neymar has since scored 66 goals in 76 matches while winning two Ligue 1 titles, one French Cup, one League Cup and one Champions Trophy.

However, it’s believed he is desperate to leave the Parc des Princes.

And Abidal has talked up a move for Neymar by declaring him a possible target for new boss Quique Setien.



Speaking with Mundo Deportivo, Abidal also revealed Barcelona are keeping tabs on Inter Milan’s young Argentine striker Lautaro Martinez as well.

He said: “It depends on planning, passports and many things.

“The important thing for me is the sporting aspect, trying to have a strong team to reach our goals as a club.

“But having talented players like Lautaro, Neymar or others would always be good for the club.

“I don’t see it as impossible. We will try to work for that.

“[Neymar’s reported £143m release clause?] It gives you a price, but the price would be the same for all clubs, not just Barca.

“The decision is always that of the player. If we can do that signing it would be good.

“But we are always thinking that Barca has the philosophy of seeing what happens in the B and youth teams.

“We always take into account what is already here when we do our planning.”
