Barcelona have not discussed the possibility of re-signing Neymar from Paris Saint-Germain, according to the Spanish club’s vice-president Jordi Cardoner.

Neymar, 26, scored 105 goals in 186 appearances for Barca between 2013 and 2017 before completing a world-record move to PSG in last summer’s transfer window.

The Brazilian has netted 39 times in 41 appearances for PSG since his arrival, but suggestions that the attacker is unsettled in France have gathered pace in recent months.

Neymar is said to be desperate to return to Camp Nou as he ‘misses life at Barca’, but Cardoner has insisted that the Catalan giants have not discussed the possibility of re-signing the South American.

“No-one on the Barca board has talked about the possibility of bringing back Neymar, right now we can’t give an answer because no-one has even mentioned it,” Cardoner told SER Catalunya.

“He was the one who left, it would be different if we hadn’t believed him and now we wanted to bring him back, but that’s not the case. If we did want to sign him then the board would have to discuss it but until now no one has talked about it.”

Blues to replace Morata with £90m Icardi
Mauro Icardi is Chelsea’s No.1 choice to replace Alvaro Morata, reports say. Chelsea are preparing to sell Morata either in January or the summer after losing patience with the striker. Maurizio Sarri has failed to inspire a return to form for Morata since taking over, and wants to put his own stamp on the Chelsea frontline.
The Sun claim Chelsea will try to sign a new centre-forward in the January transfer window and one of Serie A’s most lethal strikers sits at the top of their wishlist. Icardi is the hero of Inter, captains the team and has scored 112 goals in just 190 appearances for the Italian side. Chelsea have ‘given up’ on Morata and also have a back-up option to replace the Spainard should Icardi prove too difficult to lure away from Italy.
Inter want £90million for Icardi and Chelsea are preparing for the fact they may not be able to drive down the asking price.
