Neymar has returned to PSG for a medical before pre-season gets underway.
The Brazil international is angling for an exit from the city of lights.
A return to Barcelona has been mooted.
Real Madrid, who have already spent big this summer, are also sniffing around.
Nevertheless, according to RMC Sport, Neymar is back with his team-mates at the Ligue 1 champions.
It’s suggested he was the last to arrive and turned up over an hour later than Kylian Mbappe.
Neymar’s proposed move back to Catalonia now looks far less certain.
Ernesto Valverde has snared Antoine Griezmann following a protracted transfer saga, which leaves less space in the ranks for Neymar.
The Bernabeu remains a viable destination.
However, Zidnedine Zidane needs to sell before he can buy again.
And to make matters worse for Neymar, the France legend has prioritised Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba ahead of him.
Club president Florentino Perez also needs to get Gareth Bale off the books.
But with the Wales international pocketing £500,000 a week, suitors have been few and far between.
PSG sporting director Leonardo has admitted his Neymar can leave if a suitable offer is received.
He cost a world-record £199 million two years ago.
“It’s clear to everyone,” Leonardo told La Parisien.
“But in football, you say one thing today and tomorrow another. It’s amazing but it’s like that.
“Yes [I have spoken to Neymar]. I do not want to tell all the details of the conversation.
“We talked with his entourage too. Everyone knows everything. The position is clear for all participants.
“But one thing is concrete today: he still has three years of contract with us. And since we have not received an offer, we cannot discuss anything.
“Neymar can leave PSG, if there is an offer that suits everyone.
“But to date, we do not know if anyone wants to buy him, or at what price. All this is not done in a day, that’s for sure.
“PSG wants to rely on players who want to stay and build something big. We do not need players who would do a favour at the club by staying here.”
