A report from the Sport daily in Spain stated that Manchester United will offer Barcelona a world-record breaking transfer fee of 200 million euros (around $217 million) to buy the 25-year-old. It was also reported that the former Brazil captain has been offered in excess of 25 million euros ($27.1 million) per season.<\/p>\n
“My dream was to play at Barcelona. When I was a boy that was all I wanted. And the most important thing about playing for Barcdlona is that I’m making my childhood dream come true,” Neymar was quoted as saying by El Mundo Deportivo on Monday.<\/p>\n
The Brazilian Olympic gold winner turned down an offer from Paris Saint-Germain last summer, before extending his contract until June 2021 with the Catalan giants.<\/p>\n
Asked about clubmate and Argentine superstar Lionel Messi’s stay at the club, Neymar remained positive that he will stay.<\/p>\n
“Messi will renew because he is Barcelona and Barcelona is Messi,” Neymar said.<\/p>\n
Neymar was brilliant in his team’s 6-1 win over PSG that saw them progress to the quarter-finals of the Champions League 6-5 on aggregate. He netted twice.<\/p>\n
“It was unique,” the former Santos player said. “I experienced that game as though I was doing the impossible.<\/p>\n
“We went through an impressive moment in a short space of time, hence the euphoria.<\/p>\n
“I think we can win the treble provided we are concentrated and happy,” Neymar said.<\/p>\n
Neymar signed off by adding that coach Luis Enrique helped them grow as a unit.<\/p>\n
“He helped us a lot throughout these seasons,” Neymar said of Enrique, who won’t remain Barcelona coach next season. “He made us grow and win many titles.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
