Despite reports claiming Neymar is ready to take a pay-cut in order to complete a transfer, the two clubs are yet to reach an agreement.

Mundo Deportivo added that the ex-Santos attacker could take a position of strength, including missing the first day of the new season, if a deal is not reached before then.
Reports also claimed that Neymar would like to avoid such difficulties because he is hopeful that his wishes will be granted by the club.
It is understood that the Barcelona are open to offering Philippe Coutinho or Ivan Rakitic to the French side as part of a player-plus-cash deal for Neymar, since they can not meet his asking price.
