Watch Neymar score twice for Barcelona in the International Champions Cup as they beat Juventus 2-1

Neymar scored two stunning goals for Barcelona in the International Champions Cup as they beat Juventus 2-1 in New Jersey.

In his 45-minute performance at the MetLife Stadium on Saturday, Neymar put Barca ahead after receiving the ball from Lionel Messi, playing a one-two with Paco Alcacer and finishing emphatically.

His second was all about him as he glided past five Juve defenders, before finding the net past Gianluigi Buffon.

The 25-year-old's chances of leaving Barcelona in this summer's transfer window are "90 per cent", a source in Spain close to the player told Sky Sports News. It is understood he has decided to leave the club after becoming increasingly frustrated at "playing second fiddle" to Lionel Messi.

"Only a miracle will keep him, he really has made up his mind to leave," says the source.

It is understood Paris Saint-Germain remain the only current club willing to meet the player's €222m (£196m) release clause, with Premier League clubs Chelsea and Manchester United unwilling to do so.
