Neymar to PSG has become much more than just your average dodgy transfer rumour generated, and at this point, everything points towards the Brazilian moving to the French capital in a shock €222 million (£196 million) move.
On Monday evening, everyone's favourite transfer news provider Di Marzio reported that the Ligue One giants were preparing a mammoth bid for the Barcelona and Brazil superstar that would meet his recently increased release clause.

And the Brazilian media have since followed up on that, with Marcelo Bechler of Esporte Interativo, reporting that the 25-year old is said to have accepted PSG's proposal in what would be a mindblowing transfer.
French journalist Julien Laurens, writing for The Guardian, has also noted that PSG's interest is indeed serious and are optimistic that they can thrash out a world-record deal, while there's even be a suggestion that Neymar is willing to pay his own release clause in order to force a move.

The Frenchman is deemed surplus to requirements at the Parc Des Princes and was omitted from the club's pre-season tour as he looks for a move that will revitalise his career.

And when someone made a brilliant meme of how Neymar to PSG is 'going fine' but he wants to play with Ben Arfa, the former Newcastle United star saw the funny side and couldn't help but give it a repost:
The translation is:
"Neymar to PSG: It's going fine. However, he is demanding to play with Ben Arfa."

PSG players reacting to the Neymar news in brilliant fashion is becoming a bit of a theme, as defender Thomas Meunier also produced a hilarious Tweet.
A fan cheekily tried to get the Belgian right-back, who impressed in his first season at the Parc Des Princes, to 'confirm' Neymar's signing.
And his golden response garnered over 6,000 Retweets and Likes:
"Want to know if Neymar comes to PSG? Send SIGNINGS to 75016, 220m per SMS," he Tweeted, as translated into English.
