Football news - Neymar: Every great player has to play in the Premier League

The Brazilian has frequently been linked with a move to the English top flight, with Manchester United and Manchester City both having him on their radar in the recent past.

Neymar has scored 43 goals in 48 appearances since leaving Barcelona to join the Ligue 1 champions in 2017 - and the 26-year-old was asked by City full-back Benjamin Mendy if he would ever look to move to the Premier League during a video posted on his official website.

Neymar said in a personal message for Mendy: "We don't know how tomorrow will be, but I believe that every great player, at least one day, has to play in the Premier League.

"If you're playing there, then I hope you can keep enjoying the Premier League because you deserve only the best. Hugs and thanks!"

There has been some suggestions in the Spanish media that Neymar will be allowed to leave Paris Saint-Germain next summer for £193m, with Mundo Deportivo claiming a return to Barcelona could be on the cards.

That would mean a reunion with Luis Suarez, and the Uruguayan is also seen asking Neymar a question to his former team-mate.

"Why do you change your hair so much? That's what I'd like to ask Ney. Let him answer that, let's see!"

The Paris Saint-Germain star cracks a smile and replies: "Hey Gordo! I don't know! I always like to change things and the hair is the first thing that pleases me to do something new.

"And well I don't know why I like to fool around! But actually I know that you like it. But I'm a bit crazier and can do everything!"
