Champions League clubs chase Neymar

Neymar Jr’s father has revealed that there are transfer talks planned with Champions League clubs.

He, however, has not ruled out Neymar Jr remaining with Santos.

The Brazilian forward returned to his boyhood club in January, following an injury-ravaged spell with Al-Hilal.

The Saudi Pro League club terminated his huge contract, allowing him to join Santos as a free agent.

With the short-term contract set to expire, speculation has begun over the 33-year-old’s future.

Neymar Sr has now claimed that European top teams are keen to enter into negotiations.

He told L’Equipe: “This week, we’re going to Miami to talk to clubs. We have to listen to them and decide what we’re going to do.

“Yes, there are European clubs. Some are competing in the Champions League.

“They know he’s capable of having a great season because the lights are green. But the Brazilian market is also interesting.”
