Neymar is looking to quit French giants Paris Saint-Germain this summer after shocking fan protests have led him to perform a U-turn over his future at the club.
The Brazilian forward has been consistently linked with an exit from the Parc des Princes practically since his record-breaking arrival from Barcelona. He has previously insisted he is happy at the club but now appears to have changed his mind.
Neymar has been on the end of severe criticism from the club’s supporters this term following their underwhelming season. Supporters have protested outside his home, whilst Lionel Messi has also been targeted.
According to Le Parisien, that has convinced Neymar to perform a U-turn over his future with the club and he is now eyeing a quick exit. A number of clubs have been linked with a swoop for him - Premier League sides Manchester United, Chelsea and Newcastle the most recent to have been credited with an interest.
Neymar admitted in the past that he would be tempted to play in the Premier League but only for a select few teams. Speaking during his time at Barcelona, he said: “The Premier League is a championship that amazes me.
“I like the playing style and the teams. And who knows? Someday, I would like to play [in] it, yes. I admire Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool —these are the teams that are always there fighting."
