Nene: PSG star to join Pato in Brazil return?

Recent reports claim PSG’s Brazil international Nene is set to return to his home country. This comes as a huge shock to many Paris St Germain fans, as the dominant attacking midfielder has gained many admirers for his beautiful style of play.

A likely destination for the 31 year old is Sao Paulo, who have money to spend following Lucas Moura’s big money move to the French moneybags, PSG.

Reports claim Nene will arrive for a fee in the region of 6.7 million Euros.

RUMOURS

Nene confirmed his desire to leave the club when he quoted to a local reporter: “I love it here and have loved my time here but maybe my time us up.”

When asked about the possibility of returning to Brazil, he replied: “It would definitely be a serious consideration.”

After hearing of his availability, Turkish side Besiktas announced their interest only a day later! So could money or the chance of competing in Europe one last time tempt him over to Turkey? Or will he return home to Brazil?

According to Sky Sports News, Nene’s agent has today (3/1/13) announced he is in Brazil and in talks with a Brazilian club over the possible transfer.

MY OPINION

I would first like to tell of my admiration for Nene and that I am a big fan of the Brazilian star. I think either option that he chooses will be a good one, as the two clubs both have big positives.

Although, I think PSG is a great club who are growing rapidly, and with an appearance in every game (excluding suspensions and injuries), surely he is still wanted by the French giants?

To conclude my opinion, I think the best for Nene at this stage of his career would be to go wherever he feels he would ENJOY playing the most, with it most likely to be his last club, as he needs to enjoy his final years as a footballer.
