Why Chelsea didn’t sign Neymar revealed

Popular football expert Romano Fabrizio has shared his thought on why Chelsea may not have signed Paris Saint-Germain PSG star Neymar Jr this summer transfer window.

The 31-year-old Brazil international, who is the latest big football star to join Saudi Pro League club, Al-Hilal, was linked with European clubs after he expresses his desire to leave PSG.

According to Romano, Chelsea decided against signing the Brazil star because they want to rely on Mykhaylo Mudryk, who joined the club in a mouthwatering deal in January.

“I’m aware of reports about top clubs in Europe turning down the chance to sign Neymar, but to be honest I think it’s easy to put Neymar’s name now everywhere, and from what I understand, Manchester City never discussed with Neymar, same for Manchester United.

“Chelsea were offered this chance by PSG in June and they decided to go for different, young players.

“It was never something concrete. They preferred to protect their young investments like Mykhaylo Mudryk,” he wrote in his column for Caught Offside.
