Barcelona issue ultimatum to PSG |
Barcelona have given Paris Saint-Germain an ultimatum over their world record move for Neymar - pay up and he can go.
The French giants are reported to have agreed a five-year deal for the Brazilian superstar but have yet to agree a fee for his signature.
Neymar has a £197million buy-out clause in his contract, but it is believed PSG want to pay less than that figure and a deal is far from being completed.
Barcelona president Josep Bartomeu has made it clear the club will not change their valuation and has told PSG to pay up or end their interest.
Bartomeu, speaking to ESPN in Miami, said: "We want Neymar to stay, but there are clauses. If he wants to leave, (the club need to) pay and leave.
"They have to pay the clause, to the last peseta . UEFA has fair play controls and if any club exceeds them, they will be sanctioned. "
Neymar's future continues to dominate the headlines and the transfer saga looks to be affecting him following his training ground bust-up with team-mate Nelson Semedo in Miami.
The talented forward had to be held back by team-mate Sergio Busquets and stormed off the pitch after throwing his vest to the ground and kicking the ball away in anger.
Bartomeu, who is also out in America, insists he has not sat down with Neymar to discuss his future and will wait until they get back to Spain.
Bartomeu added: "When we go home we will sit with him."
