Barcelona ‘to offer Coutinho in exchange for Neymar’ in bid to get Brazil star back at Nou Camp
BARCELONA are considering swapping Philippe Coutinho for Neymar in a potential swap deal to bring the star back to Spain.
World record £198million man Neymar left the Nou Camp in 2017 for the monster transfer fee and Barca used the money to buy Coutinho from Liverpool.
And Barca are happy to use Coutinho as makeweight, after fluffing a golden opportunity to win the Champions League.
Ousmane Dembele is also a player in discussions between Barca and PSG.
FAN PUNCH BAN
Real Madrid have also been linked with Neymar, whose father has been encouraging interest from the big two Spanish clubs.
Neymar has had an underwhelming two seasons at the Parc des Princes, where he has missed crucial games due to injury.
And he punched a fan during the French Cup final and was banned for three matches, while also getting into an alleged scrap with team-mate Julian Draxler.
And he is facing another potential injury heartbreak after limping out of Brazil training clutching his knee.
He is currently with Tite's squad ahead of the Copa America, which starts on June 15, where he was also stripped of the captaincy.
