Complete article. Apparently they wanted a swap

Guess he was correct

It is not unusual for PSG to shit on their players through the Parisian media. And this has a whiff of that. 'Psg offered him to City, but City didn't want him and Pep doesn't want him upsetting the squad, look how shit Neymar is'.

Not sure why we think le Parisien would know what Guardiola thinks about having Neymar in his squad, so yes probably some posturing from PSG. Interesting, though.

For this much to reach the press, City will have been open to a conversation.

Why? Maybe, ok. But do you really think City would have told PSG, never mind the french press that Pep didn't want him for this reason or that? There will be a fair bit of making up in that claim.

Yeah, I'd say we were more than willing to listen to a proposal, any club worth their salt would when it comes to a player like Neymar.
Imagine we had a figure in mind in which we may have thought the risk/reward was worth it then walked away when hearing his demands.

Still not Pep tho. I don’t remember Neymar openly talking about a chance to work with Tuchel ? Sterling has just signed.

They worked together at psg & neymar talked favorably about tuchel

The only thing that @93.20blue did that makes it abit strange was make it sound like it was a done deal? Obviously there was at least conversations behind the scenes of a type but it was maybe in excitement pit across as a lot more certain than it seems it actually ever was?

Maybe it almost was but them wanting Bernie probably threw a spanner in the works.

Everyone made a big deal of it not being reported by the media, now it is they are trying to throw shade on him because it's not a done deal. I genuinely hope he doesn't stop posting but after the shit he's had on here he probably won't bother in future

Or maybe the Twitter news are not true or outdated? How many times did this happen just this transfer window. Maybe, there is much more going on behind the scenes as we speak.

Agree. 100% whoever quoted that made it up - that's not the sort of personal opinion that would be shared at this stage of negotiations.

Haaland is superstar in making just getting started, Neymar is another level. I mean look at his follower in Instagram only at example, he put all player including Haaland to shame.

Marketing wise our club will get alot of benefit if we can get Neymar to our club, a market and possible new fans from south america audience will be huge boon for our club.

Couldn't care less about Marketing. That strategy continues to fail for United. Big names, huge ego's and imploded dressing rooms. Where did Ronaldo get United? From 2nd to 6th!

Couldn't care less if we are more popular on TikTok and Instagram. We are a trophy winning machine because we aren't doing what United are doing. We buy what we need to buy to fit into our team. Haaland will come here and work for the team.

Neymar will come here and demand the earth. No thanks.
