Paris Saint-Germain attacker Neymar hints at a future move to Spanish giants Real Madrid.

Paris Saint-Germain attacker Neymar has suggested that he would find it difficult to turn down a move to Real Madrid should the European champions come calling for his signature.

Madrid are expected to sign a high-profile attacker this summer as they did not directly replace Cristiano Ronaldo and have struggled in the Portuguese's absence this season.

Barcelona president Josep Maria Bartomeu recently conceded that his club would find it 'impossible' to re-sign Neymar, but Manchester United are reportedly preparing a £262m bid for the 27-year-old.

Neymar, who joined PSG from Barcelona in the summer of 2017, has scored 48 times in 53 appearances for his French club, but is currently on the sidelines with a foot problem.

When questioned on potential interest from Madrid, the Brazilian hinted that he could represent Los Blancos in the future.

"Real is one of the biggest clubs in the world," Neymar told Globo. "Everyone that is followed by Real Madrid would feel attracted to play there, but I am happy in Paris.

"But no-one knows the future, I am not saying that I will play for Real Madrid."

Chelsea's Eden Hazard has also been strongly linked with a move to the Bernabeu at the end of the season.
