REVEALED: Neymar accepts Barcelona offer tabled by Bartomeu

PSG star Neymar has agreed personal terms with Barcelona, it has been revealed.

Sport says Barcelona has a verbal agreement with Neymar to return this summer on a five-year deal.

Neymar is so desperate to re-sign for Barca that he accepted the offer made by president Josep Maria Bartomeu immediately.

The Brazil attacker didn't want to haggle, knowing Bartomeu will have to pay record money to PSG for his signing.

The offer tabled by Barca is worth €24m-a-year - which is close to his old contract with the club. At PSG, Neymar is earning near €36m-a-year.

Also settled was Neymar's legal case against Barca over an unpaid €26m loyalty bonus, which he has agreed to drop as part of the arrangement.
