Reports: Neymar In Contact With FC Barcelona Presidential Candidates

Reports: Neymar In Contact With FC Barcelona Presidential Candidates

Neymar is reportedly in contact with a few of FC Barcelona's presidential candidates regarding a sensational return to the club.

The Blaugrana's stand-in board, who took over from former president Josep Maria Bartomeu, has confirmed that elections will be held on 24 January.

While these are both worrying and exciting times for the club's supporters, a new report from Sport has given fans something else to ponder over – the potential return of Neymar.

According to the Spanish publication, the 28-year-old has been in constant contact with a few of Barca's presidential candidates as he seemingly seeks to take his career back to Spain.

Neymar left Barcelona to join Paris Saint-Germain in a controversial transfer saga in 2017, which saw him become the most expensive player in the history of football.

It is, though, incredibly difficult to imagine the LaLiga giants re-signing him in these financially turbulent times, but it is claimed a few of the candidates would be in favour of his return to the Camp Nou.

The Brazil international attempted to rejoin Barca at the beginning of last season, but ultimately stayed in France when Antoine Griezmann became his former club's marquee signing instead.

Since his departure from Barcelona three years ago, a number of players in the Blaugrana dressing room have reportedly expressed a desire to see Neymar return.
