Neymar has pulled back from new contract talks with PSG.

L'Equipe says Neymar has hopes of returning to Barcelona this summer, particularly with Lionel Messi now leaning towards committing to a new contract.

Neymar, with his contract running to 2022, has slowed down talks with PSG while waiting to know the movements of Barça. Months ago, the Brazilian forward declared that next season he would play with Messi and has never hidden his hopes of joining the same team again.

Now the way for Barça has been opened and, before taking any decisive step that prevents him from playing with Messi, the Brazilian will wait to know if Barça will make a proposal.
