Word out of Spain is that PSG is about to raid Barcelona by triggering Neymar's release clause and poach one of the world's top and most marketable players.

Are you sitting down? Good, here are the details:

Transfer: € 222M
Salary: 30M € / year
Contract: 5 years
Signing bonus: 100M €

Among the incentives is to add Neymar's dad to the payroll.

Marca has the story going on a loop, including comments from "personnel" indicating all attempts from players intervening to convince Neymar to stay have failed, and that his game at Met Life Stadium might be his last in the Blaugrana.

If that wasn't enough to make you go get a drink, PSG is also set to meet Alexis Sanchez's price and his £350,000-per-week wage.

God. Damn.

These oil tycoohs have taken over the club soccer business and made it their own EA Sports' FIFA franchise career mode.
