La Liga have declined PSG's lawyers buyout clause offer of €222m/£198m for Barcelona forward Neymar Jr as they say it is a breach of Uefas Financial Fair Play rules.

Suarez and Messi tweeted their farewell messages to Neymar Jr so they know he will be leaving, and his PSG move will be happening and the club itself have confidence the move will happen it's just La Liga being awkward and miserable about the deal, that they are losing one of their big talents and should be resolved in a matter of time we just have to wait and see what Uefa has to say about it and the deal goes ahead as planned.

I sincerely hope La Liga and UEFA block this deal.
It has just occurred to me why this deal is being done - maybe everyone else appreciates the nuance, but I didnt until just now. PSG are owned by the State of Qatar in effect via a state investment fund. Qatar are of course investing massively in infrastructure in order to try to retain the right to host the next but one World Cup. Coincidence? I suspect not.

Qatar are currently in a tussle with their neighbours over a dispute over terrorism so this could be their way to quash that dispute and act as though nothing has happened.

Sorry, you are suggesting that buying a player for a football club in France will solve a Middle East terrorist stand off? OK!

I buy into Tim Vickery's analysis that Neymar knows he will never get remembered as a global icon while he is at Barcelona. As Vickery said, it is hard to be considered to be the best player in the world when you are not even the best player at your club.

Neymar Jr has bought himself out of his contract and is set to join PSG as planned.
