Neymar ‘happy’ at Barca despite Prem links
Neymar is ‘happy’ at Barcelona despite recent links with other top European clubs, according to the club’s director of football Robert Fernandez.
Barca are keen to tie down their Brazil star to an extended contract, with the 24-year-old’s current deal due to expire in 2018.
Real Madrid, Manchester United and Manchester City have all been linked with a move for Neymar, whose father clashed with journalists at his son’s birthday party last week.
Fernandez has played down the furore over the incident and Neymar’s future, insisting the forward is content with life at the Nou Camp.
“Neymar and his management are very happy and we are very relaxed,” Fernandez told Marca.
“The club stands by the player. These things happen and we shouldn’t dwell on it.
“The important thing is that he is happy and that’s something we can see in every game he plays.”
