Barcelona is "taking steps" toward luring Neymar back to the club in a "shock return" from Paris St. Germain, according to Will Griffee of the London DAILY MAIL. The Brazilian joined PSG in '17. His father met with Barcelona representative Andre Cury in Brazil over the winter break to "discuss a potential move," according to Catalunya Radio. This is "not the first time these preliminary discussions have taken place." Neymar's father "also sat down with Cury in London last November." Catalunya Radio also reported Israeli agent Pini Zahavi "was present for the meetings." Zahavi assisted in arranging "the world-record move from Barcelona" (DAILY MAIL, 1/9).
