Barcelona have added Ivan Rakitic to their offer for PSG star Neymar.

Sport says PSG wanted Ousmane Dembele, and after conversations with Barcelona, they could accept that in the form of a loan.

And Rakitic has now been brought into the conversation.

Rakitic would move as a transfer and the player has told Barca that he would accept that. With the two players, Barcelona would pay 125m.

The inclusion of Rakitic could be the breakthrough needed to seal the deal.

Barcelona's salary bill would also be reduced with Dembele and Rakitic going - which is necessary to sign Neymar.
