Following Neymar’s notification to PSG that he intended to leave this summer, Chelsea announced that they were in talks with him about a prospective transfer to Stamford Bridge.

According to rumors, Neymar, a striker wanted by Paris Saint-Germain, might be on his way to Chelsea as his advisors apparently continue to speak with the Blues about a stunning transfer.

Neymar, the latest high-profile superstar to cause the club another transfer dilemma with Kylian Mbappe’s future still up in the air, has informed the Ligue 1 champions that he wants to depart this summer.

The Brazilian superstar is eager to negotiate an instant exit before the European transfer window ends after moving to PSG for a then-record £ 198 million fee from Barcelona in 2017.

According to RMC Sport, Chelsea has already expressed interest in signing Neymar and might be the best option moving forward as negotiations between the player and the team continue.

Numerous clubs have been priced out of the race to recruit Neymar because of his exorbitant pay at the Parisian team, but Chelsea’s Premier League status and financial stability suggest they may be able to provide him with a way out.

The Stamford Bridge team is reportedly in the process of revising player compensation and wants to introduce a lower ceiling for top earners.

A tiered wage proposal is being looked into as a result of broad changes made under co-owner Todd Boehly, which may make a transfer for the Brazilian flair player unlikely.

Neymar’s PSG contract has two years left to run, with the possibility of an additional year if a new deal is reached in 2021.

Before agreeing to a contract worth £26 million a season, there was a rumor that the 31-year-old was eyeing a return to Barcelona.

Neymar stated: “I have already said that I am happy here and I feel much better than in the previous seasons.” Neymar then went on to explain the reasons for extending his stay in Paris.

“I’ve made some improvements here,” I said. I also experienced challenging times related to topics that are public knowledge. Contrary to what some people think, I have always put in a lot of effort and been professional.

The club is more well-respected, and PSG has expanded significantly. People are aware that PSG is one of the final four, five, or six clubs left in the Champions League when they talk about us.

However, despite a number of on- and off-field concerns, the Champions League dreams that he was hired to the club to make a reality have not materialized.

Neymar would be familiar with Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino because the two worked together at PSG before the Argentine manager was fired, and Pochettino was successful in bringing out the best in the star.

Although a Brazilian team has also shown interest, the player apparently wants to remain in a tough European league.
