The Blaugrana side has been forced to twist some of their players' arms to see the deal for the Brazilian ace materialize.

Barcelona finally seems to be taking the proper steps to sign Neymar, and things have taken a positive turn for Los Culés in the recent hours, as one of the men that could be involved in the negotiation has reportedly agreed to leave the Spanish giants as part of the deal.

Earlier today, reports coming in from Spain suggested that a deal has been reached by PSG and Barcelona, with the Spanish club ready to pay over $130M for the Brazilian player. Added to that amount of money, Los Culés would include Ivan Rakitic and Ousmane Dembelé as part of the deal.

Spanish newspaper As has reported that Ivan Rakitic has already agreed to leave Barcelona as part of this negotiation, since he has only played 45 minutes for the Catalan giants this season. The Croatian ace has opted to dismiss an attempt from Juventus to sign him in the last days of the transfer window.

The Spanish media outlet added that the deal has not been announced since Ousmane Dembelé is yet considering PSG's offer, especially after his agent came out to say that the French footballer is not interested in leaving Camp Nou Stadium.

Time is running out for Barcelona to complete this deal, even if the Brazilian ace and the French team have been adamant on their desire to end their professional relationship. If they want to speed things up, Los Culés will need to include another player in this deal if Dembelé does not change his stance on this matter.
