Barcelona are reportedly in talks with Paris Saint-Germain over sealing the return of Neymar in a transfer deal that would see Ousmane Dembele move in the opposite direction.
Well-connected Spanish journalist Gerard Romero, citing RAC1, claims negotiations have begun for this surprise exchange, which comes less than two years after Neymar initially left the Nou Camp for the Parc des Princes.

It remains to be seen how much Barca fans would welcome the return of the Brazil international, who tarnished his reputation slightly with his big-money transfer in 2017.
Neymar had failed to establish himself as the main man in the Barcelona team during his time there, despite producing many memorable moments and winning the treble in 2014/15.
The 27-year-old has continued to under-achieve somewhat as a PSG player, with the club not making any progress in the Champions League despite their domestic dominance in a relatively unbalanced league.
