With the new contract for the 103-time Brazilian international, PSG would also set an example for the future and in the fight with the other top European clubs.
Last year, the Parisians reached the Champions League final for the first time under the then coach Thomas Tuchel and thus at least somewhat satisfied the longing of the extremely rich owners from Qatar.
PSG lost the final against FC Bayern Munich.
Recently, Neymar & Co were eliminated in the semifinals against Manchester City.
Neymar had already emphasized with a view to his further career before the second leg: "Almost everything is settled." And: "I am really very happy here at Paris Saint-Germain."
In addition to the negotiations with Neymar, those responsible are also in talks with Neymar's striker colleague Kylian Mbappé. The 22-year-old French world champion has also been playing for PSG since summer 2017, but was initially only loaned from AS Monaco before he was signed for 120 million euros after a year.
