Barcelona targets PSG star as Neymar replacement

Barcelona have set their eyes on a Paris Saint Germain player who they believe is a perfect replacement for Neymar.

The Catalans after losing Neymar to Paris Saint-Germain in a world-record €222m transfer, Barcelona are now struggling to replace him with a player of similarcalibre, if not the same. And according to Spanish outlet Marca (via Sportskeeda), they have now turned their gaze to PSG’s Angel Di Maria.

Barcelona have already had bids for Liverpool’s Philippe Coutinho and Borussia Dortmund’s Ousmane Dembele rejected by both clubs. While Liverpoolhaveflatly refused to sell Coutinho at any price, Dortmund are willing to negotiate if the Catalan club offer at least €140m.

Angel Di Maria seems to be their only hope at the moment and since they have established a relationship with the French club after the Neymar transfer business, this might pull through as looks like both clubs will be exchanging another trade handshake.
