http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/live/40776521 - BBC live thread

More to follow i guess

Claim that PSG cant meet the buyout without breaching FFP

La Liga are the ones the deposit must be made to when a release clause is met it turns out and they pass the money onto the club.


'La Liga is understood to have pointed out that under its regulations only Spanish clubs have the guaranteed right to buy out a contract. It would not be able to reject the money if Neymar himself turned up to pay it


Update: Barca confirm buyout accepted

My understanding was the way the release clauses work is that they require the player to pay it

Can just imagine PSG sending Cavani over there with a suitcase full of money

La Liga will do all they can to try and stop Neymar leaving Barca. It's bad news for them.

Finding it funny that Barca are the ones squirming for once. Well deserved.

Found something in the Guardian's article on this:

'La Liga is understood to have pointed out that under its regulations only Spanish clubs have the guaranteed right to buy out a contract. It would not be able to reject the money if Neymar himself turned up to pay it.'

Should be easily resolved then.

Unless of course PSG give him the money to do it and he does a runner to Brazil or somewhere.

"See ya"
