The sporting director of Barcelona, Deco, commented on the information regarding the possible transfer of Santos forward Neymar.
"Neymar was a phenomenon who played here and won a lot. Sometimes such stories do not repeat, and sometimes they can repeat — you never know. But I believe that now is not the time for Barcelona to think about Neymar, just as it is not the time for him to think about it.
First of all, I think Neymar needs to be happy again, to enjoy football. And right now, I do not see a better place for him than Brazil. I support him, I want him to be happy because the national team needs him. Everyone who loves football should see a happy Neymar," Deco is quoted by Mundo Deportivo.
