La Liga giants Real Madrid are reportedly desperate to somehow not let Neymar move back to their arch-rivals Barcelona. Multiple sources have now reported that Madrid are in fact planning a grand offer for the Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) star forward.
A report carried by Don Balon, a Spanish weekly sports magazine, states that Real Madrid are willing to give as much as with €250million in exchange of Neymar. The report further claims that they are ready to offer Vinicius Jr in addition to the amount to somehow convince them to part ways with Neymar.
Earlier reports had hinted that Vinicius is not happy with his stint at Real Madrid since he was relegated to their second division team. Despite Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane allowing him to play in all the matches of the La Liga so far, it hasn’t changed the 19-year-old’s feelings towards him.

There were reports which suggested that Vinicius wants Zidane removed from his job. He believes that Zidane is the main reason why Madrid have struggled to come together as a unit and perform as well as they would have liked.
Meanwhile, the report by Don Balon also goes on to claim that club president Florentino Perez is still keen on working out the Neymar deal. Neymar has also publicly admitted that he is indeed looking forward to making a come back to La Liga.
In such a situation, it won’t be a surprise at all if PSG agree to exchange Neymar for Vinicius Jr as part of the player plus cash deal. Reports claim that this deal may happen in June 2020.
