Neymar has told his Barcelona team-mates that he will be joining Paris Saint-Germain this summer, according to reports in France.
Le Parisien claims that several Barcelona players have been made aware of the Brazil international's decision, while some of Barca's hierarchy are also resigned to the fact that the forward will be leaving Camp Nou
Earlier this week, reports in Brazil claimed that Neymar has agreed a contract with the French club which will see him earn €30m (£26.6m) a year.
PSG are willing to activate Neymar's €222 million (£197m) release clause, which means that Barcelona would be powerless to prevent the transfer, and the decision now rests with the Brazil forward and his father, who has held talks with the French club's sporting director Antero Henrique this week.
Neymar has begun preseason training with Barcelona
On Thursday evening, Catalunya Radio reported that the chances of Neymar joining PSG were ’95 per cent’.
Neymar is currently in the United States for the start of Barcelona's pre-season tour and reports in Spain have claimed that Luis Suarez has been trying to convince Neymar to turn down a move to France.

But it seems that Neymar will push ahead with the world-record move ahead of the new campaign.
Behind the scenes at Barcelona, Neymar is reportedly unhappy with the lack of Brazilian influence in the dressing room and had even urged the club to sign Philippe Coutinho and Paulinho.
The 25-year-old is also keen to leave Barcelona in order to become the leading star of a team, something which he feels he is unable to do alongside Lionel Messi at Camp Nou.
Is this the end of MSN?
