Premier League clubs Chelsea, Manchester United, and Liverpool are interested in signing Neymar in the summer.
According to a report by Fichajes, Chelsea, Liverpool, and Manchester United are keen on signing 31-year-old Brazilian superstar Neymar. The Brazilian forward’s future at Paris Saint-Germain is uncertain and the Premier League clubs are willing to sign the star.
Neymar joined PSG in the summer of 2017 from Barcelona for a world record fee of over €200 million. The Brazilian forward was brought into the team to help them win the Champions League. But, he hasn’t managed to help the French side win Europe’s biggest club football tournament.
The 31-year-old has scored a lot of goals and bagged a lot of assists for PSG. He has 193 goal contributions in just 172 appearances for the club. The stats suggest that he has done wonders. But, the reality is that he hasn’t done what he was brought for.
The French team have assembled a front three of Messi, Kylian Mbappe, and Neymar but still haven’t managed to fulfill their ambitions.
They believe it is time to revamp the team and are ready to offload the costliest player in football history for €60 million. And, Premier League clubs are ready to land the Brazilian superstar ahead of next season.

Liverpool are going through tough times in the league. Jurgen Klopp will head into the next transfer window in order to rebuild his squad.
With the departure of Roberto Firmino whose contract ends in the summer, signing Neymar will surely help their cause. However, it still seems unlikely given the way they carry out their transfer dealings and the wage structure.
Meanwhile, Manchester United will enter the summer transfer window in search of an attacker. They want to add a player who can help them return to their glory days and Neymar could be the missing piece for the Red Devils. He can easily fit into Erik ten Hag’s system. But, their priority still might be to sign an out-and-out striker rather than someone who prefers playing out wide or behind the striker as an attacking midfielder.
Chelsea’s new owner Todd Boehly has already had a meeting with PSG owner to discuss the possible signing of the Brazilian star. The Blues are going through a transition phase and are looking to build a squad of world-class footballers.
Neymar’s addition will surely bolster their squad but with them set to miss out on Champions League football for next season, it will be interesting to see if the former Barcelona winger agrees to a move or not.
