According to a report from Madrid-based sports daily Marca, Real Madrid look set to reunite their interest in the Brazilian star as a replacement for Juventus-bound Cristiano Ronaldo.
Paris-Saint German star Neymar Jr is the first name on Madrid book to replace Cristiano Ronaldo should the Portuguese completes his impending move to Italian champions Juventus.
The departure of the iconic number 7 will surely leave a void in the Madrid team, but only one name- yes, just a name- will suffice to replace the five-time Ballon d'Or winner.
The Brazilian has been Los Blancos' object of desire for many years even before his move to Barcelona and the approaches have been continuous in recent months.
Florentino Perez's dream of signing the former Barcelona player, considered by the majority as the great successor of Cristiano himself and Leo Messi, has been reactivated.
Brilliant performances and a brutal economic machine, Neymar will generate money for all of the brands that are already associated to Real Madrid.
The difficulty lies, logically, in the refusal of Paris Saint-Germain to sell its main star just 365 days after bursting the transfer market wide open and paying 222 million euros to Barcelona.
It won't be easy for the multimillionaire French club to open the doors to one of its icons without having won the Champions League, an objective for which he was signed to deliver.
Should the deal goes through, Neymar will join the likes of Luiz Figo and Luiz Enrique as players to have played for both Barcelona and Real Madrrid.
