Barcelona's deal which will see Neymar return to the Camp Nou the summer is apparently close to being completed following talks with Paris Saint-Germain in the French capital.

Rumours have been flying left, right and centre throughout the window as Barcelona looked to re-sign the Brazil international, who is deemed to be surplus to requirements by PSG.

In a recent update, it was claimed that Barcelona were making progress even though a deal still hadn't been agreed, but journalist Gianluca Di Marzio has made a serious statement by claiming the deal is entering the home stretch.

While most news about Neymar's future has been pure speculation, Di Marzio is widely regarded as one of the best around and his update could prove to be the biggest development of the entire transfer saga so far.

It had been suggested that Real Madrid were still interested in signing Neymar this summer, but the Paris Saint-Germain star was quick to stress his desire to return to Barcelona instead of moving to the Santiago Bernabéu.

Barça have been in the French capital for a number of days as they desperately look to complete a deal ahead of the European transfer deadline on September 2.

Although no details of the deal will be have been revealed, it's been heavily suggested that the 27-year-old will move back to Catalonia on a season-long loan move which includes an obligation to buy him next summer.

If a deal is able to get over the line this summer, Neymar might not be able to make an immediate impact at the club as he's only just returned to first-team training and is yet to make a single appearance this season.
