Neymar and Hazard could bring Champions League title back to Real Madrid, says Hagi

Real Madrid would be among the favourites for this season's Champions League if they signed Neymar, according to Gheorghe Hagi.

The Brazil superstar has been linked to the Spanish giants, as well as former club Barcelona, and he was absent as Paris Saint-Germain opened their Ligue 1 title defence with a 3-0 win over Nimes on Sunday.

Madrid are prepared to swoop in with a bid in excess of €100 million (£92m/$112m) for him, though Goal understands Barca could convince PSG to sell with an offer of €50m plus Philippe Coutinho and Nelson Semedo.
