The 25-year-old has starred with 14 goals in 15 matches across all competitions for the Ligue 1 leaders but his time in the French capital has already been marked by speculation over uneasy relations with both head coach Unai Emery and star team-mate Edinson Cavani.

Spanish football magazine Don Balon has reported Madrid are planning a blockbusting €250m move for Neymar at the end of this season that would be financed by the sales of Gareth Bale, James Rodriguez, Karim Benzema and Rafael Varane, while a piece by Diario Gol claimed Los Blancos president Florentino Perez advised Neymar to leave Barca for PSG in order to smooth a path to the Santiago Bernabeu in the long-term.
