Will Ronaldo leave Real Mad

Paris Saint-Germain v RSC Anderlecht - UEFA Champions League
Will Neymar move once again for a record fee?

Neymar shocked the entire world when he decided to leave Barcelona and instead go to Paris Saint-Germain for a world record fee of 222 million Euros. But his move did not go as he had expected. According to reports, Neymar was unhappy at PSG as he thought that the league was not that competitive and there were also reports saying that there was a rift between Neymar and Edison Cavani.

It is clear that Neymar is among the top 5 players in the world. His tricks, skills and overall mobility on the pitch is what attracts fans, and that is what the Madrid fans had with Ronaldo. It has also been a while since Florentino Perez has made a 'Galactico' signing.

A Galactico signing such as Neymar will surely attract a lot of media and thus it will help in a marketing sense. If Ronaldo, who has a lifetime contract with Nike and has deals with many other brands, does leave, then Neymar would be the perfect replacement for him, both on and off the pitch.

There are also reports that Madrid need to cough up around 350 million Euros to get Neymar, which seems unlikely to happen. But if Real Madrid does sell Ronaldo then they will have a large hole in their squad and with club president, Florentino Perez said to be a huge fan of Neymar, anything could happen.
