Chelsea star
Ligue 1 giants, Paris Saint-Germain have reportedly slapped £190m price tag on Neymar amid rumours
of a possible move to Chelsea.
The Brazilian forward has managed to found back of the net 13 times last campaign, however,
experienced a troublesome season that was hampered by injuries.
Although Neymar’s current deal is set to be automatically extended until 2027 on July
1, rumours have begun circulating about his future.
PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi opened the door to a possible exit after telling reporters:
“Beyond the rumours about Neymar’s future, everyone has to give their best.
And, if not, they will have to leave, like those who took advantage: there will be sales.
The 30-year-old forward has since been rumoured with a move away, with Serie A giants, Juventus
holding talks about a transfer, while the Blues are reportedly showing an interest in
bringing the ex-Barcelona forward to Stamford Bridge.
According to Marca, any team interested in securing the services of Neymar would have
to pay €220 (£190m) to prise the attacker away from the Ligue 1 giants, as they look
to recoup the majority of the fee they paid for the Brazil international.
The Brazil international has managed to found the back of the net 100 times in 144 games
for the club.
Lazio will have to pay €15m to add Emerson Palmieri from Chelsea, with the left-back
set to quit the London giants.
The Biancocelesti are expected to enter discussions over many dealings with Chelsea and could
negotiate a move for Italy international.
Palmieri’s time at the London club is likely to come to an end, and a return to Italy is
heavily mooted for the defender.
Having spent the last campaign on loan with Lyon, Emerson could make a return to his homeland
if things go according to plans.
Despite growing speculation around Alonso’s future, the German manager is happy to see
him leave the club.
For now, Chilwell stays their first-choice left-back, and the Englishman has returned
from a serious knee injury recently.
Palmieri could have returned to the London club in winter after an injury crisis enveloped
the club, but Lyon refused to sanction an early release for the Italian defender.
Now that he is back at Chelsea, the defender is likely to move on permanently, with Serie
A giants showing an eagerness to sign the defender.
Lazio are currently managed by ex-Chelsea coach Maurizio Sarri, who has worked with
Emerson.
The Biancocelesti are in the market for additions in several positions while anticipating a
few sales of their own, with Milinkovic-Savic looking likely to be their star departure.
As for Palmieri’s case, Chelsea want €15m for the defender, who has two years left on
his deal.
