Real Madrid 🔴 The Brazilian crack force to sign for Real Madrid

The plan designed by Neymar, his father and Real Madrid for the Brazilian star to end up playing at the Santiago Bernabéu starting next season has entered its decisive phase. The French club already knows first-hand what was feared for months following the insistent rumors: Neymar does not want to continue in PSG, with which he has a contract until 2022, and has asked to sit down and negotiate his departure. The player's father told President Nasser Al Khelaifi a few days ago.
The footballer recognizes that he was wrong to sign for a team of a minor championship like the French, uncompetitive, and that he has not adapted to the dressing room, where he does not maintain a good relationship with the hard core that the Argentines form (Di MarÃa, Pastore , Lo Celso) and the Uruguayan Cavani. Now it remains to be known what is the reaction of Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani, the Sheikh of Qatar and the true owner of the club that presides over Al Khelaifi. That is the key to this matter.

FIRST MEETING IN DECEMBER
At the meeting between the two parties held in Paris on December 7 coinciding with the Golden Ball award ceremony to Christian, Neymar told the white leaders that he was willing to force his departure from the Parisian team to sign for them. Since then it has become the priority objective of Madrid, to the point of conditioning the rest of possible reinforcements. The executives insisted that, should it come to fruition, the operation had to take place before the World Cup.
It should be assumed, as is usual in these cases, that in any of the subsequent meetings held by Real Madrid and Neymar have advanced in the contractual conditions that would link him with the white club in case it gets separated from the PSG. The Brazilian is the second highest paid player in the world after Leo Messi and wins 37 million net after starring in the most expensive transfer in history (222 million) last summer by paying his termination clause.
DIGITS THAT DIZZY
Madrid knows that if the father of Neymar, with the help of the Israeli representative Pini Zahavi (who already intermediated in the operation for his signing for the PSG), is able to convince the emir of Qatar to agree to transfer the player will be change of an astronomical amount. This would range from 260 million (the sum of the 222 who paid more than the 37 paid by the French club) to 300 or even more. To that should be added the salary of Neymar, an especially sensitive aspect now that Cristiano will negotiate at the end of the season his promised salary increase (he wins 'only' 23 million) with Real Madrid.

And finally, the corresponding premium of signing and usual in these megaoperations, which could be around 40 million. Dizzying figures, no doubt, but in the offices of Valdebebas handled as assumable for months. For this, it is also expected to enter more than 100 million with sales of important footballers and with a good market like Bale.
STATUS ISSUE
In any case, sources familiar with the environment of the Parisian club insist that the main obstacle for Neymar to fall to Real Madrid as he claims is not a question of money but pride. Last summer the PSG gave a global blow by hiring the two most promising young footballers (Neymar and Mbappé) for 400 million and losing their main figure only a year later would be interpreted as a message of obvious weakness. Beyond football, it represents a question of State. Positioning of the emirate of Qatar, the richest country on the planet, before the western world.

BETTER NOW THAN IN 2019
Real Madrid knows that if it waits a year Neymar could resolve its contract in the summer of 2019 paying the same 222 million that the PSG deposited on August 3. It is a commitment signed by both parties despite the fact that in French football the termination clauses do not apply. Even so, in the white club they trust in being able to carry out the operation already for the simple reason that it is now when the footballer has taken a shot. And they are not willing to let the opportunity pass.
THE THIRD ATTEMPT
At 26 years old, it is the third attempt made by Florentino Pérez for Neymar, the signing that has most resisted him so far. It all started in 2006, when being a 14-year-old kid he was testing for two weeks with the child of Real Madrid and even got his card ready to register in the Madrid Federation, but this time it was the whites who did not manage to give the He passed. Seven years later, in the summer of 2013, playing with Santos and being the greatest promise of world football came to pass medical examination and committed to Madrid for the following season but in the end the Barcelona was ahead with not very good arts, that ended with Neymar at Camp Nou and Sandro Rosell in jail.

AT ALL COSTS
Two years later, in January 2016, he again flirted with white managers as he did simultaneously with PSG and Manchester City. He assured them that he was not going to continue at Barcelona even though he renewed months later, although after that he only lasted one more year as a Barça player. And now, to the third, the vanquished can go as the saying goes. Because Neymar seems determined to sign for Real Madrid at all costs and have to push what you have to push.
