PSG sell staggering 10,000 Neymar shirts in ONE DAY — more than Angel Di Maria in two years as they look balance books with Uefa
Ligue 1 side need to justify incredible £198million outlay and have made excellent start shirt sales on Brazilian's first day
PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN are reported to have sold a staggering 10,000 Neymar shirts — in just ONE DAY.
Many, above all Barcelona and La Liga officials, have asked the question: how will PSG afford the mammoth £198million transfer and remain within the Financial Fair Play regulations?
Well, with personalised shirts being sold on the club’s website at £140, this will go a long way toward helping that.
Remarkably, the Ligue 1 giants sold more Neymar shirts in just one day than they have Angel Di Maria jerseys since 2015.
And the Argentine could argue he is now the club’s No 2 star in terms of market value.
PSG may well need to prove they have the income to justify such a huge outlay on one player.
But they have around 12 months to find ways of recouping enough to break even.
The easiest way, of course, is to sell players.
Jese Rodriguez has already joined Stoke on loan — and more exits are expected to follow.
Blaise Matuidi is closing in on a move to Juventus for around £16.4m.
While, Lucas Moura and Hatem Ben Arfa could soon leave the Parc des Princes.
