Lionel Messi is reportedly a key driving force behind Neymar’s return to Barcelona.
Neymar is in his second season at PSG after leaving Barcelona for £200m.
But talks has been rife of a return to Spain ever since he landed in Paris.
Real Madrid are big admirers and want him as the long-term heir to Cristiano Ronaldo but Barcelona are also back in the mix
And the Independent claim Messi is a big player in the transfer talk and wants to be reunited with his former team-mate.
Barcelona would not be able to pay the huge fee that Neymar would demand so they could even look into a swap deal involving Ousmane Dembele.
Dembele has struggled to earn he support of the fans and his team-mates since joining from Borussia Dortmund so far.
But the 21-year-old has three goals from seven starts this season as he looks to turn the corner.
