GENEVA: Neymar is headed for an exit from Paris Saint-Germain to follow his former teammate Lionel Messi away from the French champion in its turbulent summer.
A person familiar with the situation told The Associated Press talks are moving toward Neymar leaving the club this month. The person spoke Thursday on condition of anonymity to discuss confidential negotiations.
The 31-year-old Brazil international was widely reported to have told PSG this week he wants to leave, just days before the team begin their French title defense.
His expected preference is a return to Barcelona, which he left for a world-record fee of €222 million ($244 million) six years ago.
