According to <a href="https://www.mundodeportivo.com/futbol/fc-barcelona/20190821/464196953921/el-psg-pidio-a-dembele-semedo-y-100-kilos-por-neymar.html" target="_blank">Mundo Deportivo</a>, PSG originally asked Barcelona for €250m (£228.5m/$277.3m) for Neymar, or €100m (£91.4m/$110.9m) plus Ousmane Dembele and Nelson Semedo. The latter option was PSG's first choice, but it is believed neither of the Barcelona players were interested in the swap. The pair are just two in a long list of names that have been linked with a move to the French champions in a potential deal for the Brazilian, along with the likes of Ivan Rakitic and Philippe Coutinho before his Bayern switch.
