It appears 27-year-old superstar Neymar has spent enough time away from Leo Messi and Barcelona.
Reports have surfaced that Neymar has made it clear he wants to go back to Barcelona and that he never should have left in the first place.
This comes less than a day after Messi told the team he would prefer the return of Neymar over the potential addition of French star Antoine Griezmann.
With the transfer of French star Antione Griezmann appearing imminent, Barcelona boss Josep Maria Bartomeu has denied any contact whatsoever.
This comes just days after reports of Atletico president Gil Marin claiming the club has known of some sort of transfer since March.
Other reports came out saying it was a done deal.
According to recent reports from Spanish daily MARCA, Atlético Madrid is planning on making a massive $135 million bid for Benfica wonderkid João Félix. The 19-year-old attacker tore up the Primeira Liga last season, scoring 15 goals while adding seven assists in 26 games.
The fee would double Atlético’s previous transfer record, set when purchasing French winger Thomas Lemar from Monaco last summer for $67 million.

Atletico Madrid CEO Gil Marin has confirmed they’ve known Griezmann is bound for Barcelona since March.
Griezmann landing spots were rumored for just about everywhere in Europe.
The 28-year-old is coming off a World Cup title but is yet to win a LaLiga or Champions League title.
