Barcelona president confirms club will not sign Neymar in January



BARCELONA: Barcelona president Josep Maria Bartomeu has confirmed the door is closed on a possible January move for PSG star Neymar.

The La Liga giants spent all summer trying to negotiate a deal to re-sign the Brazilian, who moved to Paris for a world record £200m in 2017.

However, the two clubs were ultimately unable to agree on a deal.

It was reported Barca offered several of their players, including Ivan Rakitic and Ousmane Dembele, as makeweights in a possible deal, but Bartomeu said it was not the case and explained that it was PSG who suggested their names in the deal.

“He’s not in the plans for January,” Bartomeu told Barca TV.
