Neymar Celebrates Barcelona League Title

The 31-year-old superstar was spotted at a Barcelona airport shortly after his former club clinched the league title with a resounding 4-2 win against local derby rivals RCD Espanyol.

The team celebrated at the local Carpe Diem nightclub with Neymar on board. The Brazilian was given a few days off after PSG's dominating 5-0 win over AC Ajaccio.

Neymar was in attendance during the match, calling former Barca teammate Luis Suarez on FaceTime to "watch their friend Lionel Messi" play.

Neymar is out for the season after undergoing surgery on his injured right ankle last March.

Paris Saint-Germain acquired Neymar from Barcelona in the summer of 2017 for a world-record transfer fee of €222 million, making him the most expensive football player in history.

However, the Brazil national team captain is rumored to be leaving the Paris-based club at the end of the season.

It has been reported that Neymar wanted to return to Barca, but the club's difficult financial situation means that they can't afford to bring their former forward back.
