Neymar was interested in leaving for Chelsea in the summer transfer window

The clubs failed to agree on a transfer

Attack PSG Neymar came close to leaving the club during the summer transfer window. Two clubs in the Premier League were interested in the forward – Newcastle and Chelsea.

The Magpies’ offer was reportedly financially attractive, however the club itself did not match the Brazilian’s desires. Neymar was interested in a move to Chelsea. However, the Blues were unable to reach an agreement with PSG on a transfer.

It is reported that the Parisians were looking for the option of selling the Brazilian because of Killian Mbappe. The French striker asked management to get rid of the Brazilian, as well as a number of other players, including Lionel Messi. Later, Mbappe himself denied rumors of a feud with Neymar.

The Brazilian striker has been playing for PSG since 2017. Neymar has made 16 appearances for Paris in all competitions this season, scoring 12 goals and providing 9 assists.

PSG lead Ligue 1 with a 3-point lead over Lorient. In the next match, the Parisians will play away to Ajaccio on 21 October.
