Neymar-PSG deal runs into La Liga roadblock
Spain\'s La Liga on Thursday rejected payment of a record-breaking release clause that would allow Neymar to leave Barcelona for Paris St Germain, a source from the national soccer league said.
Madrid: Spain's La Liga on Thursday rejected payment of a record-breaking release clause that would allow Neymar to leave Barcelona for Paris St Germain, a source from the national soccer league said.
A group of lawyers representing Neymar visited La Liga in Madrid on Thursday to try to settle the transfer and pay the 222 million-euro ($263 million) break fee.
It was not immediately clear whether La Liga's refusal to accept payment would put the brakes on the transfer.
Spain's Marca newspaper reported that Neymar and his advisers would turn to FIFA, world soccer's governing body, requesting a provisional transfer to PSG.
The Brazilian striker's agent Wagner Ribeiro had said on Wednesday that the French club was ready to foot the bill so that Neymar could be presented at PSG at the weekend.
Meanwhile, French President Emmanuel Macron on Thursday gave his seal of approval to Neymar's transfer a day after the Brazilian said good bye to his teammates in Spain. "It`s better that he pays his tax in France rather than pay it elsewhere," Budget Minister Gerald Darmanin said.
