Reports suggest that Barcelona is considering a potential move to bring Neymar back to the Camp Nou, should they fail to secure Erling Haaland from Manchester City.
While Haaland remains Barcelona’s top priority for the summer of 2025, reuniting with Neymar is seen as an intriguing alternative. The Brazilian, currently with Al Hilal, will become a free agent next summer, offering him the freedom to choose his next club without transfer fees.
Neymar’s potential return to Barcelona could help him maintain match fitness as he aims for a spot in Brazil’s 2026 FIFA World Cup squad. The 32-year-old has been sidelined for a year due to a cruciate ligament injury.
On another front, Manchester United is looking to extend Harry Maguire’s contract by offering the defender a one-year extension. Maguire, who joined United in 2018 for a significant fee, has faced reduced playing time recently.
United’s move comes after an almost completed transfer to West Ham last summer fell through, prompting the club to secure Maguire’s future and avoid losing him for free at the end of the season.
