Barcelona 'line up final offer for Neymar'

Barcelona reportedly line up a final offer for Paris Saint-Germain attacker Neymar which will include Philippe Coutinho, Jean-Clair Todibo and Nelson Semedo.

Barcelona are reportedly preparing to make a final offer for Paris Saint-Germain attacker Neymar as the Spanish champions look to bring the Brazil international back to Camp Nou.

Neymar's future remains the subject of much speculation, with the 27-year-old widely expected to leave the French capital before the end of the European transfer window.

Both Barca and Real Madrid continue to be linked with the South American, who is allegedly so keen to leave Paris that he is prepared to accept a huge pay cut to secure a return to Spain.

According to RAC1, Barca are lining up a final offer for the attacker which will include Philippe Coutinho, Jean-Clair Todibo and Nelson Semedo in addition to a cash sum.

Coutinho has been strongly linked with a move away from Camp Nou this summer. However, Todibo only joined the Catalan giants in January, while Semedo has developed into an important first-team player for the club.

The report claims that PSG are looking for around €90m (£82m) and the three players in question in order to sanction the sale of Neymar in the latter stages of the transfer window.

Barca will open their 2019-20 La Liga campaign away to Athletic Bilbao on Friday night, when the likes of Antoine Griezmann and Frenkie de Jong are expected to debut for the club.
