Few modern footballers rub fans the wrong way quite as much as Neymar.

A clearly ridiculously talented player, Neymar more often than not can be seen acting like a complete and utter d*ck as he spends so much of his time rolling around on the floor at the slightest of touches.

He's good, though. Very, very good.

According to new reports from Spain's SPORT publication, Neymar has made it clear to Paris St-Germain officials that he wants out - the extent that these reports claim that the Brazil international has flat-out refused to play for PSG again - and the world's most expensive player is eyeing a return to Barcelona.

Of course, Neymar was all kinds of happy to sign that magic PSG contract that sees him earn €600,000 a week. Now though, after two years in France, he's seemingly already a bit bored of strolling to the Ligue 1 title.

L'Equipe reports that Barcelona are certainly keen on bringing the player back to the Camp Nou, but that the Catalan club are more interested in offering players in exchange for Neymar rather than matching PSG's cash valuation of £273 million.
