Barcelona chiefs travel to France to finalise Neymar deal?

Barcelona have reportedly increased their efforts to secure a reunion with Neymar before the end of the summer transfer window.

Speculation persists that the Catalan giants and rivals Real Madrid want to sign the Brazil international, who wants to end his time at Paris Saint-Germain.

While negotiations have been ongoing for a number of weeks, there has been little suggestion of a deal being close to completion, despite various proposals being put together.

According to the Daily Mail, officials from Barcelona have now made the trip to France in a bid to bring about a positive conclusion for all parties.

There remains doubts, however, over PSG's willingness to sell given that Kylian Mbappe and Edinson Cavani have recently suffered injuries which could keep them sidelined for a month.

PSG are said to want £90m plus Ousmane Dembele and Nelson Semedo if they are to part ways with the world's most expensive player.
