Neymar Jr might, in the summer decide, after a mere one year in France say to himself, ‘that’s enough for me,’ and bin Paris Saint-Germain.
Thought provoking statement, don’t you think?
Let’s be honest, the French league is nowhere near as entertaining as the Premier League and we all know Neymar loves to show off and entertain.
Here is my speculative reason why Gabriel Jesus could persuade Neymar to come to Manchester City.
Gabriel and Neymar often link up for the Brazilian national team.
‘Not exact rocket science as they come from the same country. Thing is, when they come together they are inseparable.
Two peas in a pod?

Get them anywhere near a football and look what happens.

They love a pose or two.
Something’s on the menu.
Back to football!

None of this means a jot but, as best buddies, surely they must have had a chat whether they would ever team up at one club and if they have, I bet Manchester City FC must have been part of the conversation.

Do City need a player like Neymar?
‘Sergio Aguero is not getting any younger is he?’
Would Neymar fit in with Pep Guardiola’s philosophy?
‘I would have thought so?’
How could City afford the transfer fee and what about FFP?
‘PSG got around it, didn’t they?’
If anything were to happen and Neymar needed persuading to come to the Premier League I’m sure it wouldn’t take Gabriel too long to nudge his decision in the right way.
If anyone can Jesus can?
