<p>Neymar's future is once again the subject of speculation, with his <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-in/news/neymar-father-transfer-talks-champions-league-clubs-santos-extension-brazil-star-impossible-dream-2026-world-cup/blt5b5c4c009bb36476" target="_blank">father having confirmed talks with Champions League clubs</a>. Jose Mourinho's side appear to be admirers of the Brazilian and have made an initial offer to bring him to Turkey this summer, according to <a href="https://www.fanatik.com.tr/fenerbahce/galeri-fenerbahceden-dunya-yildizina-ilk-teklif-2585469/5" target="_blank"><em>Fanatik</em></a>.</p>

<p>Fenerbahce are eager to strengthen their squad over the summer after ending last season without a trophy.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Neymar's father has offered an update on his situation in an interview with <em>L'Equipe. </em>He said: "I see a market that's interested. This week, we're going to Miami to talk to clubs. We have to listen to them and decide what we're going to do. Yes, there are European clubs. Some are competing in the Champions League. They know he's capable of having a great season because the lights are green. But the Brazilian market is also interesting.”</p>

WHAT NEYMAR'S DAD HAS SAID

<p>Neymar will no doubt consider his options carefully over the summer.
