Neymar Jr. is back on FC Barcelona's radar for the upcoming summer transfer window. His return to Santos, which initially seemed like a long-term project, will only last for six months, and in July, he will be free to negotiate with any team. In this scenario, his desire to return to the Blaugrana has become an increasingly strong rumor. However, bringing the Brazilian back would be a monumental mistake for the Barcelona entity.

Economic Error:

The main obstacle to his return is the economic factor. Neymar has a very high salary, and Barcelona is not in a position to take on a contract of such dimensions without further jeopardizing its finances. With the need to continue adjusting its wage bill and complying with LaLiga's Financial Fair Play, Neymar's arrival would put the club's stability at risk.

His Performance is Not Like Previous Years:

Beyond the financial aspect, his performance raises doubts. Neymar has been performing below expected levels for almost two seasons due to injuries and lack of consistency. His last period at PSG was marked by inconsistency, and his brief stints at Al-Hilal and Santos have not been enough to prove he remains a decisive player.

No Place in the Blaugrana Squad:

Regarding sports, Barcelona already has two established wingers: Raphinha and Lamine Yamal, who have proven to be key players in Hansi Flick's scheme. There is no reason to dismantle an offensive structure that is working well just to make room for a player whose best days are behind him and would entail an unnecessary expense.

The return of Neymar, despite exciting some fans, would not be a sensible decision. Barcelona needs to look to the future and avoid repeating past mistakes.
