Rumours of his father getting a bigger bonus than the 40m he got when his son signed for Barca. That's why he has Neymar Jr. on his shirt, his father is the real boss.

I imagine it comes down to the players thinking it's funny at first but after a few weeks of him nicking their aftershave and brylcreem and watching him lick himself in the changing room they just want shot of the weirdo and stop trying.

Eltbus not yet knowing which sources are reliable for transfer season brings me back to posting here 8 years ago like he is now.

How was his first touch though? Was it pretty enough?

Wait till the BBC run with it, and obviously not the gossip section.

A catalan journalist very close to Barca, Quim Domenech, says things have to change radically regarding Neymar, otherwise he is almost gone and mostly because his father convinced him so. This would be hilarious, a few weeks ago everyone hoped CR7 would leave RM and now this happens.

Bookies seem to have priced whether Neymar moves at around 50/50. Interesting that the Barcelona bid for Coutinho appears to be real, indicates they are maybe planning a replacement.

isco would both fit barca and make sure bale plays every week for madrid so they should probably pay double for him

As a Barca fan, I say let Neymar go. He had a down year and played undisciplined football this season.

Not as big a loss as most will make it sound imo.

No rush to sell Neymar, they can still get a good 2-3 years out of him before he Ronaldo/Ronaldinho/Adriano's himself.

Don't think they'll have enough for Mbappe, they have to save some money for Messi's contract renewal in 6 months. And I bet his father wants something as well.

This is great, on top of Neymar and Alexis, Verratti dropped his stupid agent and will stay a while.

#dreamsummer, almost as good as getting Verratti Zlatan and TS in the same week
