Barcelona are to sue former player Neymar for £7.8m over an alleged breach of contract in the wake of his £198m move to Paris Saint-Germain.

The amount is understood to relate to a loyalty bonus Neymar received after signing a contract extension in October 2016.

"Barcelona decided to take these actions in defence of their interests, after a unilateral termination of contract urged by Neymar Jr a few months after signing the renewal until the end of the year 2021," a statement read.

Neymar marked his PSG home debut at the Parc des Princes with a fine individual display with goals, assists and showboats!

Neymar joined PSG on a five-year contract on August 4 following a protracted transfer saga.

The Brazil international's move looked set to be held up after La Liga initially refused to accept the funds for the buyout clause. The deal finally went through and the 25-year-old scored on his league debut in the 3-0 win at Guingamp.

Neymar says the Barcelona board 'shouldn't be in charge' after the controversy surrounding his world record move to PSG and says the squad deserve better.

He also scored twice in the 6-2 victory over Toulouse that leaves PSG top of Ligue 1 on goal difference but the fallout from the transfer looks set to rumble on.
