Reports claim that Paris Saint-Germain have made the shock decision to place Neymar on the transfer list this January.

According to Fichajes, the Ligue 1 champions are prepared to part ways with football's most expensive player ever in this transfer window should a suitable offer arrive.
With the Brazilian having been plagued by a few injuries in his six years to date in the French capital, the PSG hierarchy reportedly believe that the 30-year-old attacker is becoming a burden on their wage bill.
Les Parisiens are said to have tried to sell the superstar in the previous window, putting a €150 million (R2.7 billion) price tag on the skilful attacker in hopes of luring a potential suitor.
However, Neymar did not leave the Parc des Princes and stayed on in the French capital, starting the 2022/23 season in fantastic form, scoring 15 goals and providing 13 assists in the 21 appearances he has made so far for PSG.
Despite his fine form, though, the club's top brass seems eager to rid themselves of the salary they pay Brazil's joint top goalscorer of all time, so much so that they are willing to listen to offers ranging between €50 and €60 million (R903 million and R1 billion) for his signature.
