'Back together' - Neymar welcomes Messi to PSG as former Barcelona superstar lands in Paris

Neymar has sent a welcome message to Lionel Messi after the former Barcelona superstar's arrival in Paris as he closes in on a free transfer to Paris Saint-Germain.

Messi has chosen to embark on the next stage of his career at Parc des Princes after 21 trophy-laden years at Camp Nou.

The 34-year-old was unable to re-sign for Barca due to the club's current financial difficulties, and officially announced his departure on Sunday, with PSG subsequently swooping in to hand him a two-year deal with the option of an extra season.
