Neymar is expected to complete the deal with Paris Saint-Germain and is due in Paris within the next two days to finalise the most expensive transfer in world football history.
He is expected to arrive in the French capital by Friday to complete his move.
It is understood the total value of the deal is worth nearly £450m (€500m), which includes wages, bonuses and a buyout clause of £198m (€222m).
The forward has been offered a basic salary of £26.8m-a-year (€30m) after tax, around £515,000-a-week.
A source in Spain close to Neymar told Sky Sports News that: “Since he decided to leave, Neymar has had to deal with huge pressure to stay at Barcelona. His teammates wanted him to stay but his decision was made.”
The source added that Neymar had been ,”close” to joining Manchester United in last summer’s transfer market but chose PSG after a further season at Barcelona.
Neymar is expected to join five Brazilian international teammates at PSG, including Dani Alves and Thiago Silva.
