Here we go again.

After Neymar’s father hinted that his son could be forced to leave Spain due to tax complications, rumours that the Barca man could end up at Manchester United quickly resurfaced.

Stories of a switch to Old Trafford had first emerged in the summer transfer window, with many dismissing it as mere speculation.

Reports since have indicated that United’s interest was genuine but it now appears that Louis van Gaal will face competition for the Brazilian if he does become available.

Now, Spain’s Don Balon claim Chelsea are in the chase for Neymar, along with Manchester City.

Unsurprisingly, money-laden Paris Saint-Germain are also named as a potential next destination for Neymar, who is expected to feature in this weekend’s El Clasico fixture against Real Madrid.
