      Barcelona’s Neymar transfer bid revealed with club offering PSG £98m and THREE players including Dembele

      by

      BARCELONA offered £98million plus Ousmane Dembele and two other stars for Neymar, it has been revealed.
      A sensational swoop for the Paris Saint-Germain star appeared to be near completion just over a year ago.

      Neymar was reportedly unhappy two years after leaving the Camp Nou in a world record deal, and the prospect of reuniting with Lionel Messi was seen as too good to turn down.
      Yet, the deal failed to get over the line and former Barcelona director Javier Bordas has detailed why.
      Jean-Clair Todibo and Ivan Rakitic were also involved in the mega deal, which fell through due to the transfer fee.
      He told Cadena Cope: “We offered PSG £98m plus Todibo, Rakitic and the loan of Dembele.

      “PSG wanted £116.5m plus Todibo, Rakitic and Dembele on loan.
      “Neymar was £18.5m away from coming back.
      “Neymar’s father said that he would make up the difference but in the end that didn’t happen.”
      A number of reports at the time discussed Todibo, Rakitic and Dembele as part of the deal, with varying cash offers said to be tagged onto the deal.

      It was even reported that French winger Dembele had rejected PSG in his bid to finally make the grade at Barcelona.
      Ultimately, Neymar stayed put and enjoyed a hugely successful 2019-20 campaign, reaching the Champions League final and winning Ligue 1.
      Rumours continue to circulate over a return to this day but the 28-year-old is said to be content at PSG while his former club struggle financially.
      Former Blaugrana chief Bordas joined the club in 2010 and served under Josep Maria Bartomeu before resigning alongside the club president.
      And he recalled how certain Barcelona stars agreed to delay their own salary in order to seal Neymar’s return.
      He added: “I personally went there and we were very keen for him to come – we tried in every way possible
      “We got PSG to tell us how much they wanted when they never accepted anything for Verratti or Marquinhos or Thiago Silva. They are not a selling club.

      Some players proposed postponing part of their salary so that Neymar could return.
      Javier Bordas

      “Some players proposed postponing part of their salary so that Neymar could return.
      “But they all had to be cut back quite a bit to make it fit in with Financial Fair Play and LaLiga.
      “However, the two times that Neymar could have returned, he would have given up a lot of money.”

      by

      PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN star Mauro Icardi’s wife Wanda Nara left little to the imagination with another saucy selfie on Instagram.
      The Argentine, 33, – who doubles up as her striker husband’s agent – regularly delights her 7.2million followers on the social media site.

      Wanda Nara left little to the imagination on Instagram

      And Wanda was back at it again with a sultry lingerie selfie with a simple ‘quarantine’ as the caption.
      The picture quickly racked up nearly 300,000 likes with adoring fans littered the comments section with fire emojis.
      Another said on a separate post: “Very pretty at home.”
      A third added: “No one stops you.”

      The post was just the latest in a string of risque pictures shared by the model, agent and TV host.
      She recently shared a pool-side bikini picture and for Halloween dressed up in a revealing skin-tight leather catsuit.
      The latest picture was taken in Paris, where Icardi this summer signed a permanent deal with PSG, having spent the season beforehand on loan.
      But a battle with coronavirus and knee problems have kept the 27-year-old out of the starting squad this season.

      The forward has managed just four appearances, despite scoring two goals.
      His future at PSG now appears up in the air, just a year after leaving Inter Milan.
      He could be in line to return to the San Siro with rivals AC Milan, who are said to be interested in pairing him with Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

      PSG star Neymar has been in ‘open relationship’ with stunning singer Gabily for last eight months

      by

      REPORTS in Brazil claim Neymar is in an ‘open relationship’ with popstar Gabily.

      It is said that Neymar first contacted Gabily, real name Gabriel Batista, over Instagram at the start of the pandemic.
      The pair have reportedly met a number of times throughout the coronavirus crisis.
      This includes a trip to Paris for Gabily, who stayed at a hotel while meeting Neymar before spending a number of days at his home with her friends.
      Most recently, they have spent time together in Brazil.

      But it is insisted that the couple are not exclusively committed to one another, maintaining an ‘open relationship’.
      Yet to go public on their reported romance, Neymar did hint at his relationship with Gabily when appearing in an Instagram video of the singer’s in July.
      Rio de Janeiro-born popstar Gabily is signed to Universal in Brazil and released her debut studio album earlier this year, after success with hits including ‘Voce Gosta Assim’ and ‘Cansei de Ser Fiel’.
      Neymar, meanwhile, is sitting out Brazil’s World Cup qualifiers this month due to a groin injury.

      The 28-year-old winger’s romantic life has often attracted interest.
      In 2011, he had a son, Davi Lucca, with former girlfriend Carolina Dantas.
      For a number of years, Neymar was said to be in a relationship with Brazilian actress Bruna Marquezine before being recently linked to model Natalia Barulich.

      Real Madrid ‘confident they CAN complete Kylian Mbappe transfer deal next summer for £161m if star refuses PSG contract’

      by

      REAL MADRID are ready to wrap up a sensational £161million deal for Kylian Mbappe – if he refuses to sign an extension to his Paris Saint-Germain contract.
      The France World Cup winner has been Los Blancos’ top target for the last two years.

      Madrid newspaper AS claim the Spanish giants are confident they can secure Mbappe’s transfer.
      The 21-year-old hitman is considering all options.
      He joined PSG from Monaco in July 2018.
      Mbappe’s contract expires in June 2022.

      He can sign a pre-contract with a club outside France in 14 months’ time.
      Bernabeu chief Zinedine Zidane has long been a fan of his fellow countryman.
      He would like to link Mbappe up with his fellow countryman Karim Benzema.
      Real are restructuring their finances to bring in the cash to turn the Mbappe transfer into reality.

      They will make £33m this season from offsetting wages they would have spent on James Rodriguez and Gareth Bale.
      They also brought in £27m from Tottenham for Spain left-back Sergio Reguilon.
      Madrid chiefs know that if Mbappe signs a new deal then his transfer value will rocket.
      They hope he will run down his contract so they can get him next year for £161m.

      Neymar sent home from Brazil squad through injury and will miss World Cup 2022 qualifiers against Venezuela and Uruguay

      by

      NEYMAR has been sent home from the Brazilian squad due to injury and will miss both World Cup 2022 qualifiers.
      The ace will be forced to sit out encounters against Venezuela and Uruguay due to a leg strain.

      While the management knew he would be absent for the first game, it was hoped he would recover in time to face Uruguay.
      Brazil’s national team doctor Rodrigo Lasmar said: “We were hopeful that he could play, that’s why we brought him to Brazil.
      “He improved but not enough so that he’ll be ready for the game on Tuesday against Uruguay. The backroom staff decided to release Neymar.”
      PSG manager Thomas Tuchel was critical of all the games players are involved in for both club and country following football’s suspension after the outbreak of Covid-19.

      He said last month: “We’re going to kill the players. That’s what I’ve always said.
      “We are going to kill them because there is an important link between preparation, performance and rest.
      “In football it always falls on the greatest players because they will always play for their country.
      “They play during the break, they travel and that’s too much in my opinion. They don’t have a recovery phase to allow them to come back and a preparation phase.

      “That is not a secret, it happens in sport. Preparation influences injuries and performance.

      “Without preparation, players are more fragile and difficult to manage. This is not an excuse, this is the truth. We are going to look for solutions and I hope we will find some.”
      Neymar returns to France amid rumours he is ready to quit PSG in the summer.
      Reports today suggest some of Barcelona’s presidential candidates want him to return and he is open to offers.

      The recent snaps are just the latest in a string of risque pictures shared by the model, agent and TV host

      It comes after she left little to the imagination after posting a topless selfie on Instagram days before.
      The recent snaps are just the latest in a string of risque pictures shared by the model, agent and TV host.
      She recently shared a pool-side bikini picture and for Halloween dressed up in a revealing skin-tight leather catsuit.
      Nara also shared a candid picture walking around in Paris, where Icardi this summer signed a permanent deal with PSG, having spent the season beforehand on loan.

      But a battle with coronavirus and knee problems have kept the 27-year-old out of the starting squad this season.
      The striker has managed just four appearances, despite scoring two goals.
      His future at PSG now appears up in the air, just a year after leaving Inter Milan.
      And he could be in line to return to the San Siro with rivals AC Milan, who have a reported interest in the forward.

      According to A BOLA, Icardi has been identified by as the man to help fire them the Serie A giants into the Champions League.
      Milan also see him as not only an ideal partner for Zlatan Ibrahimovic, 39, and also his successor when the Swede finally hangs up his boots.
      Icardi scored 20 goals in just 31 matches in all competitions last season.
      But his time in France was nearly cut short when reports claimed PSG planned to terminate his loan deal early after his wife claimed he wanted to leave when his deal expired at the end of the season.
      A BOLA also report that Nara, who acts as his agent, is the reason he is open to a move back to Italy as she is keen to go back.
      She was instrumental to his departure from Inter when she responded to some backlash her husband had been getting.
      Her remarks led to him being stripped of the club captaincy, which he was furious about and he in turn refused to play in a Europa League clash against Rapid Vienna.
