Chelsea are chasing the signature of Paris Saint-Germain superstar Neymar ahead of the summer transfer window.
French sources are reporting that Blues owner Todd Boehly has met with PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi to discuss a potential deal.
The Brazilian trickster has spent the last five-and-a-half years in France having signed for a record fee of £198million, making him the most expensive football player ever.
During his time at the Parisian club, Neymar has scored 117 goals in 172 appearances in all competitions.
And the 31-year-old could try his hand at the Premier League with a new-look Chelsea keen to bring another marquee name in the near future.
Neymar would be 33 by the time his current contract expires and his next move would likely be his last at the top level.
It is unclear whether Chelsea will present a bid for PSG’s No10 but with Hakim Ziyech on the verge of a move in the opposite direction in January, there may be an opportunity to fashion a deal including both players.
