Pep Guardiola has reportedly turned down the opportunity to add Neymar to his Manchester City ranks this summer, despite believing his beloved Barcelona would have won more Champions League crowns had the Brazilian superstar stayed at the club.
City continued their domestic dominance last season by claiming a fourth Premier League title in five years, but once again fell short in their ongoing bid to become champions of Europe. Guardiola's side capitulated in the dying minutes against Real Madrid at the semi-final stage to see their European dream shelved for yet another season.
In order to overcome their continental hoodoo next campaign, City have significantly strengthened this summer, adding the likes of Erling Haaland, Julian Alvarez and Kalvin Phillips to an already star-studded squad. But one megastar the Premier League champions have seemingly passed up the chance to sign this summer is Paris Saint-Germain forward Neymar.
