BARCELONA FC chairman Bartomeu: "NEYMAR wanted us back, but there's no room for signing him next January"

Published on: 06 September 2019

Interviewed by Barça TV, Blaugrana chairman, Josep Maria Bartomeu, talked about the club having missed on bringing 27-year old star forward Neymar: "Neymar wanted to join us back, and  we gave it a try, though it wasn't in the plans. We talked about bargaining chips to PSG, and it was them calling names, not us. Neymar did what he should, by notifying PSG he wanted to leave. But he's going to play for them all current season long, there's no room to bring him in next January. Real Madrid keen on him as well? I don't know. But I know he was tracked by three different clubs. Neymar, however, told PSG he only wanted Barça".
