Chelsea to show interest in PSG superstar Neymar. Neymar, the top player for Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), is supposedly a target for Chelsea. He is thought to be the project’s prospective star for the forthcoming 2023–24 season.
Since the beginning of last summer, there have been rumors that Neymar, 31, will leave the Parc des Princes. He has contributed to 35 goals in 29 games this season, but the Parisians’ upper brass has continued to dislike him.
Fichajes claims that Chelsea is now the front-runner to get Neymar during the upcoming summer transfer window. Todd Boehly, the chairman of the Blues, wants to make a sizable offer for the former Barcelona player. He hopes to provide Mauricio Pochettino, who will presumably be selected as the club’s next manager, with a world-class forward.
On the other hand, PSG is rumored to be eager to allow the attacker to leave this summer to restructure their frontline for their upcoming project. They also have the flexibility to loan their celebrity out with the possibility to purchase.
In Chelsea’s upcoming project under Pochettino, Neymar, whose current contract is slated to expire in June 2025, would be the marquee player. Since Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Christian Pulisic, and Raheem Sterling are all expected to leave the Blues this summer, the Santos youth product would have ample space to comfortably integrate into the team.
The 124-cap Brazil international is a right-footed inside forward known for his finesse and dribbling. In 173 games for the Ligue 1 champions, he has tallied 118 goals and 77 assists. Neymar has so far assisted his team in winning 13 trophies.
Chelsea is anticipated to sell more stars this summer than just the three named above. They intend to restock their roster shortly to move past their poor 2022–2023 campaign. According to reports, the Blues are eager to get rid of Conor Gallagher, Kalidou Koulibaly, Kai Havertz, Hakim Ziyech, and Mateo Kovacic.
A striker from the Premier League is reportedly moving to PSG:
With his club’s place in the Premier League up in the air, transfer expert Dean Jones provided GiveMeSport with some insight on the future of Leeds United attacker Wilfried Gnonto.
He explained that PSG was a possible suitor: “Clubs like Juventus, Paris Saint-Germain, and Borussia Dortmund are reportedly keeping an eye on this, according to what I’ve heard. The player doesn’t seem to want to leave at all, therefore it will be interesting to see how Leeds do in the upcoming weeks.”
The 19-year-old Gnonto has drawn a lot of attention in his first Premier League season. In just 1506 minutes of action since moving from Zurich to Leeds for about £4 million last summer, he has four goals and as many assists.
As Lionel Messi is anticipated to leave on a free transfer in June, PSG is aiming to add fresh talent to their attack this summer. According to AFP, the 35-year-old has already signed a £400 million contract with Al-Hilal of the Saudi Pro League.
