Chelsea are in talks to sign Paris-Saint Germain star Neymar, according to reports in France.
Todd Boehly has been busy splashing the cash since completing his £4.25 billion takeover at Stamford Bridge in May. A busy summer transfer window was followed by another in January - including the British-record arrival of Enzo Fernandez.
The US billionaire's spending in England has shown no signs of slowing down going into the 2023 summer with football.london reporting that Christopher Nkunku has signed a pre-contract agreement with the Blues and will link up with Graham Potter's side in the summer.

However, another arrival could blow Nkunku's deal from RB Leipzig out the water, with reports claiming that Boehly has held talks with PSG over the possibility of signing Neymar at the end of the season.
According to Le Parisien, the Chelsea chief met PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi on Tuesday to discuss the Brazilian's future and the conditions of a potential move to the Premier League. Neymar was in action at the Parc des Princes last night as the French giants' UEFA Champions League dreams took a blow in defeat to Bayern Munich.
A move away from Paris has been tipped after the 31-year-old confirmed he had been involved in a disagreement with club chief Luis Campos and defender Marquinhos. That came after the weekend’s defeat to AS Monaco when Campos criticised the player’s performance.
Neymar has been at PSG since 2017 after a world-record move from Barcelona worth £222m. He has contributed to 193 goals in 172 appearances in France, winning four Ligue 1 titles. However, he has long been linked with a move away following the big-money arrivals of Kylian Mbappe and Neymar.
The news of Boehly's meeting in Paris this week comes only two months after it was claimed that the Chelsea owner had met with the player's representatives in Qatar during the World Cup.
