But now, it's actually happened - and Brazilian star Neymar is set to earn a staggering £500,000 per week at the Ligue 1 giants.

If you thought that was the end of the summer transfer window drama, then you couldn't be more wrong... the fun is just getting started.

With Neymar leaving Barcelona, the La Liga side are going to need to replace him with a huge name.

That in turn will spark a chain of mega-money signings throughout Europe - with the Premier League heavily impacted.

Check out seven massive transfer that could just go ahead thanks to Neymar's extraordinary move...

THERE'S no secret Barca have been hoping to replace Neymar with Reds ace Coutinho - even launching a second £89.5m bid earlier this week.

However, Jurgen Klopp is adamant his star Brazilian is going nowhere.

The Anfield chief has also rejected a cash-plus-player deal involving one of Rafinha and Andre Gomes this summer.

That said, often the lure of a club such as Barcelona can be too much for a player to look beyond...

DELE ALLI

SLIGHTLY more of a left-field decision, but rumours coming out of Spain have suggested Barca could take a look at Alli.

With Liverpool boss Klopp stubbornly refusing to budge regarding Coutinho, the La Liga side are hoping Alli's proven goalscoring knack and rapidly rising stock could be the way forward.

However, one stumbling block would clearly be Tottenham's attitude - they will not want to lose their star midfielder.

MARCO VERRATTI

BARCA have been long-time admirers of PSG man Verratti.

With the French giants stealing one of their shining lights in Neymar this summer for a whopping £198m, they could be more inclined to finally allow Verratti to leave.

While for now it is likely Barcelona will look to sign a forward to replace the Brazilian, the Italian midfielder will continue to be on their radar.

ANTOINE GRIEZMANN

Atletico Madrid to Barcelona

FRENCH forward Griezmann looked dead-set on leaving Atletico this summer for Manchester United.

However, with the Madrid side in the midst of their transfer ban, he agreed to stay for at least one more year, until they could replace him with a new star.

Yet Barcelona are reportedly tempted to part with the temporarily DOUBLED release fee in order to inject an instant top name... with La Liga experience at that.

Ousmane Dembele is another potential target, along with Juventus' Paulo Dybala and Monaco wonderkid Kylian Mbappe.

PIERRE-EMERICK AUBAMEYANG

HE'S long been touted for a reunion with Klopp - who worked with the star in Germany - at Anfield.

But the potential loss of Coutinho would almost certainly see the Kop boss reinvest the funds immediately in someone like Aubameyang.

While the club would have to spend big, the addition of the Gabon international would give Liverpool one of the most fearsome front lines in Europe.

NABY KEITA

THE Reds have already failed with a number of bids for the Leipzig midfielder, with both clubs accepting he'll almost certainly stay for one more season.

That said, should Coutinho leave, Klopp will want to bolster his midfield ranks - with Keita still one of the club's No1 options.

Liverpool could sell their "Little Magician", bring in Keita and still turn a profit to reinvest elsewhere, too...

LUCAS MOURA

WITH PSG spending big on Neymar, they will more than likely need to sell in order to balance the books.

Along with Verratti to Barcelona, the potential for long-term Reds target Moura to finally head to England is high.

Should Coutinho leave, Moura could prove an able replacement...
