Brazilian superstar Neymar is reportedly still keen on a return to FC Barcelona, but it has now been claimed he would have to sacrifice a whopping €30 million of his current annual salary for the move to happen.
The 28-year-old is the top earner at Paris Saint-Germain and in Ligue 1, pocketing €36 million (R743 million) per year, according to reports.
The French giants are said to be keen to increase his annual salary to €38 million (R784 million) in order to fend off interest from the Blaugrana. However, it remains to be seen if he will commit his future to PSG or push for a return to his former club.
"We have never spoken about (a return to Barcelona)," one of his representatives said recently, as quoted by The Sun.
"For the moment, our only concern is with the coronavirus.
"We think the summer will be calm. Honestly, we are not talking about (a move) at this moment.
"Neither an extension with PSG, nor moving elsewhere."
According to Mundo Deportivo, however, the decision will be an inner fight between "happiness and money" for the player as he is set to lose out on €30 million (R619 million) if he does decide to rejoin Barcelona.
He currently pockets an additional €14 million (R289 million) as the face of the National Bank of Qatar, taking his total PSG income to €50 million (R1 billion).
At Barca, though, it is claimed he will only receive €20 million (412 million) for an annual salary, with the Spanish giants already close to exceeding its wage budget.
