Neymar has starred since his move to Paris Saint-Germain but he still wants a Barcelona return
‘I don’t know, I think it is difficult to get done,’ Montoya told Goal.
‘Paris is also a great team and I don’t think they will let him to leave easily. Paris paid a big amount of money for him and I don’t think Barcelona would pay the same price for him [to come back].
‘I think Neymar wants to go back because he was really comfortable and adapted the three years he was at the club. He had a great connection with Luis Suarez and Messi, but I think it is very difficult for him to come back to Barca.’
