Manchester City could reportedly attempt to pull off a shock swoop for Paris Saint-Germain attacker Neymar this summer.
The 30-year-old has endured a frustrating 2021-22 campaign with a serious ankle injury and was booed by his own supporters in the weekend's Ligue 1 victory over Bordeaux, despite finding the back of the net.
Neymar was persistently linked with a return to Barcelona last year, although a move failed to materialise, and his contract at the Parc des Princes does not expire until the end of the 2024-25 season.
However, a recent report claimed that PSG were keen to do away with Neymar this summer, and Fichajes now claims that Man City boss Pep Guardiola would like to bring the Brazil international to the Etihad Stadium.
The report adds that Barcelona and Newcastle United could rival the Premier League champions for Neymar's signature, although he would have to take a significant hit on his wages to re-sign for La Blaugrana.
Neymar has registered five goals and five assists from 20 games in all tournaments this term, taking his total to 92 strikes and 57 assists in 136 games for Les Parisiens.
