Paris Saint-Germain president Nasser Al-Khelaifi hopes a conversation with Real Madrid can put an end to persistent speculation linking Neymar with a switch to Los Blancos.
The Brazil captain – who moved to PSG from Barcelona for a world-record €222million in 2017 – continues to be linked with the LaLiga giants despite insisting he is happy in France.
In July, Madrid rejected claims in the Spanish media they had made a €310million offer for the 26-year-old superstar, calling the reports absolutely untrue .
The constant talk of Neymar returning to Spain has become a frustration for Al-Khelaifi, and is something he has discussed with Madrid president Florentino Perez in an attempt to put the rumours to rest.
We don t like it at all and we have spoken to Real Madrid, Al-Khelaifi told Marca.
It s a bit frustrating, it s not fair that other clubs talk about our players.

We have a good relationship and they respect PSG, and I hope that s the truth. We respect Real Madrid, their president, Florentino Perez, but I think that it s important for everyone not to work behind the scenes.
I don t know if he understands me. If there is something, we speak, speak with Florentino Perez or whatever it is and we speak about what we like and what we don t like.
It s what we want with all clubs, not just Real Madrid. Fighting amongst each other is not the way PSG works and I hope other clubs don t do that to us.
