French football league has demanded that its Spain’s counterpart accept the 222 million euro ($260 million) cheque for Neymar’s ‘transfer of the century’ from Barcelona to Paris Saint-Germain.
Spain’s football league had rejected the buyout, turning away representatives of the 25-year-old Brazilian from the Madrid headquarters of La Liga
Reacting the French league said in a statement, “The LFP is surprised and does not understand the refusal of La Liga to simply accept the payment of the release clause of the player Neymar.
“The LFP asks the Liga to abide by the Fifa rules and its responsibilities.
“The LFP supports Paris Saint-Germain and wishes Neymar to join the Ligue 1 championship.
“The legal services of the LFP are in support and at the disposal of Paris Saint-Germain so that the Neymar contract is approved as soon as possible.”
