REAL MADRID continue to work at prising unsettled Neymar away from Paris Saint-Germain.
The Spaniards are treading carefully as they are anxious to show their respect for the French club and do things the right way.
PSG obviously don’t want to lose the Brazilian striker they paid a world record £198million for last summer when he left Barcelona.
But Marca say the 26-year-old is unhappy in Paris and the general standard of play in the French League 1.
Neymar would welcome the chance to return to La Liga and play alongside Cristiano Ronaldo.
Marca believe Ronaldo wouldn’t have a problem having Neymar alongside him.
