Neymar undergoing Al-Hilal medical ahead of stunning £2.7million-a-WEEK transfer from PSG
NEYMAR has undergone a medical at Al-Hilal ahead of a stunning £2.7million-a-week move from PSG, according to reports.
The Brazilian informed the club last week that he wants to leave this summer.
And he was not in the squad for their Ligue 1 opener versus Lorient at the weekend.
PSG boss Luis Enrique is keen to cash-in on him, having made it clear to the club that he wants to build a younger team.
Neymar, 31, had asked his representatives to find him a new team and his father has reportedly had meetings with Al-Hilal.
The Saudi side appear to have convinced him to join as various sources are claiming that he is having a medical before penning a two-year deal.

Reports had suggested he would earn £1.3m-a-week but claims in Brazil say he will now be on £2.65m every seven days.
The deal could be completed in the next two days after a fee of £86.3m has allegedly been agreed.
Neymar will become the Saudi Pro League's best paid stars ahead of Al-Nassr's Cristiano Ronaldo and Al-Ittihad's Karim Benzema.
The winger wanted to return to Barcelona, but they were unable to agree a deal due to financial constraints.

Al-Hilal have been chasing several PSG stars this summer, first trying their luck with Lionel Messi, but he joined Inter Miami.
They then launched a stunning £259m offer for Kylian Mbappe, only for the Frenchman to decline a transfer to them.
They have also made bids for midfielder Marco Verrati.
Al-Hilal have ex-Chelsea star Kalidou Koulibaly, former Wolves ace Ruben Neves and £60m winger Malcom on their books.
