Neymar almost stopped PSG move ―Report

A repentant Neymar tried to pull the plug on his world-record move to Paris Saint-Germain before the deal was even signed, claims Marca .

The Brazilian became the world’s most expensive player this summer when he swapped Barcelona for the French capital in a €222 million transfer. But he was apparently distraught upon finalising the paperwork, and asked Barca president Josep Maria Bartomeu to cancel the deal.

Thanks to the manoeuvrings of father and agent Neymar Sr., however, the deal reportedly was completed against the player’s wishes.
