If French side Paris Saint-Germain or Real Madrid are serious about signing Neymar then they will have to match his buy-out clause.

If French side Paris Saint-Germain or Real Madrid are serious about signing Neymar then they will have to match his buy-out clause.

Neymar has a deal at Barcelona which is set to run until 2018.

Discussions over a new deal are likely to continue into the summer but whilst a deal isn't formalised transfer rumours continue to circulate.

Real Madrid remain 'keen' according to Marca with the Spanish newspaper reporting: It's not an impossible transfer and with continued uncertainty over whether Barcelona can afford to keep him, rumours of Neymar heading to Real Madrid will continue to rumble on.

And comments from Neymar's agent Wagner Ribeiro about a potential move to Paris Saint-Germain have also picked up global attention.

"We will see what happens in two years time when his contract expires. If PSG showed an interest in signing Neymar, we can always discuss it."

"A contract can be resolved if the buyout clause is met. Neymar's buyout clause is huge, it's €193 million. But I don't think that would be an insurmountable problem for PSG."

"I get along well with [PSG sporting director] Olivier Letang and [PSG club president] Nasser Al-Khelaifi, but we have not discussed a transfer as of yet. We are in the decisive stages of the season, so it's not really the time to talk transfers. We will discuss things at the end of the season." he said discussing his 24-year-old client to French newspaper L'Equipe.

Those comments got a reaction from Barcelona president Josep Bartomeu who told Globo Esporte: "If someone wants to negotiate with Neymar, we will not give them permission, Neymar will stay at Barcelona."
