Neymar has been linked with a shock move to the Premier League after Paris St. Germain reportedly held a meeting with representatives of an English club.

According to a report by French newspaper Le Parisien, Chelsea co-owner Todd Boehly, met with PSG chairman Nasser Al-Khaleifi in Paris this week, with Neymar's move a subject of the conversation.

The 31-year-old Brazilian's future in the French capital has been the subject of speculation with reports in some quarters claiming PSG will be willing to listen to offers at the end of the season.

Neymar's relationship with the club's fan base has turned sour, while he has struggled to share the spotlight with Kylian Mbappe after the latter signed a mammoth contract extension last season.

Chelsea could be ready to snap up the Brazilian, with a 60 million Euro fee deemed enough to price him away from France.

However, a deal would hinge on whether Chelsea would be willing to match his current wages, which is around €36 million a year.
