Barcelona to make final move for Neymar

We have now reached the business end of the Neymar transfer saga. With Barcelona running short on funds and PSG reluctant to accept the players Barcelona are offering, the deal looks a fair distance away from happening despite none of the parties involved standing sternly against the move.

Barcelona are now ready to make one final push to reach an agreement with Paris Saint-Germain as they're convinced now that the time for dilly-dallying is over. Barcelona have been passive in their approach as they didn't want to worsen an already strained relationship with the Ligue 1 champions.

The clubs were reportedly in talks earlier this window but a move failed to materialize as PSG kept changing their stance. However, they're ready to negotiate now but it remains to be seen whether they'll outright reject Barcelona's cash+player offer or whether they'll accept it.

If Barcelona make an official bid, Neymar could play a huge role in what's going to happen over the next few weeks. The Brazilian is yet to publicly demand a move to Barcelona. If he does that, then Paris Saint-Germain will find themselves in a very tricky spot.
