MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - Brazil striker Neymar's world-record move to Paris St Germain makes little business sense for the French club and could have its roots in Qatar's political situation, experts have said.

The Qatari-owned PSG paid 222 million euros (200 million pounds) to take the Brazil striker from Barcelona to the French capital in a move that also appears to make little sense for the player from a footballing perspective.
