Neymar ‘desperate’ for Barca return, Coutinho tells Messi

Published on: September 1, 2018 8:12 AM

Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) forward Neymar is ‘desperate’ to make a move back to the Camp Nou, Philippe Coutinho has reportedly told Barcelona captain Lionel Messi.

According to Spanish website Don Balon, Coutinho has told Messi that former Barcelona frontman Neymar is ‘desperate’ to make a come-back.

Neymar, who joined PSG in 2017 at a world-record fee of over 200 million euros, now realises that moving to PSG was not the best of moves and regrets it, the paper claims.

It also goes on to say that the 26-year-old Brazilian would also love to get his hands on the Balon d’Or – award for the world’s best footballer – one day.

On the other hand, Neymar’s replacement Ousmanne Dembele has started to fire on all cylinders, scoring crucial goals during the ongoing campaign, although there is a lot to be played for yet.

The news might gather mixed reactions from Barcelona fans because a large number of club supporters have been critical of Neymar’s choices, but everyone deserves a second chance, no? After all, who would not want to play with Messi, again.

Do you think Neymar will return to Barcelona?
