Paris Saint-Germain could possibly be letting Brazilian star Neymar make a sensational return to Barcelona as the French club reduce fees for the player to £135m.

Recall that the Brazilian sealed a world record move of £198m to PSG for in the summer of 2017 and has gone on to score 69 goals in 80 matches for the French outfit.

Catalan club Barcelona have done everything possible to have Neymar return to the club where he spent four seasons scoring a massive 105 goals in 186 matches.

The injury prone player is also reported to be having other personal issues which have all haunted him from reaching his peak in France.

It is however not clear if the club will allow Kylian Mbappe leave the club amid rumour that several top clubs including Real Madrid are on his trail.

In France they looked on course for a seventh league title in eight years, holding a 12-point gap over Andre Villas-Boas's Marseille with a game in hand.

With Neymar still unsure of where his future lies, Paris Saint Germain have now identified the Manchester City forward Riyad Mahrez as a quality replacement for the winger.

Although no price has been mentioned in the deal that could see the Leicester City man move to France, there are indications that this move could happen at the end of the current season.

So far this campaign, Mahrez has scored a total of nine goals and 14 assists across competitions but his club is languishing seriously behind Liverpool on the Premier League table.
