Neymar will buy-out his contract "on his own", the state of Quatar will just happen to give him €300m for his promotion of the 2022 World Cup. PSG will avoid any FFP problems this way, as they won't pay any transfer fees. Brilliant.

Also, the transfer is delayed because Neymar has to stay in Barca until a certain date if he wants them to pay a loaylty bonus od more than €20m.

Would be lovely if they could rush through a rule disallowing a player to buy their own contract above $10m or something like that. ****ing shady bollocks.

[Daffy Duck]

That's the only way buy-out clauses in Spain work, players buying out their contracts themselves. Except I guess it's usually the buying club that's officially on paper to provide the player with money. PSG just found a loophole, and I think Real has been know in the past for doing it as well, with the help of the city of Madrid.

FWIW Barca can kick and scream all they want - They are all shady ****s - £200m for your third best forward and they moan

Is this legit? Is anyone reporting this?

Maybe we should just bid for Neymar, that way him and Coutinho can stroke each other. VVD and Keita money put together and we are not far off

On the contrary we should be looking at ways to help PSG get the deal done, for instance... I really think Adrien Rabiot could push on and become something special but being homegrown I think PSG will want to retain him a potential future captain perhaps.

I like Rabiot, a lot.

Probably need about double that to cover when you consider the mad wages. Be nice though wouldn't it?

Welcome to LFC, Neymar da Silva Santos Júnior

Is it though?

The FFP rules are likely (according to reports) to be circumvented with a ridiculous cash payout in order to pay off his contract.

If there are rules about ownership interfering with a club's business (Red Bull owning two clubs for instance) then surely something can be done about this 'insider trading'?

Hasn't it been said that if FFP ever made it impossible for a player to move and in the case of Neymar that appears to be the case as the fee is so high, then it would actually interfere with his employment rights?

Barcelona are a smug, underhand club and I for one wouldn't be too unhappy to see them on the receiving end.. Albeit not if it means Coutinho leaves
