Paris Saint-Germain and Barcelona may yet seal a deal for Neymar as negotiations are not over, according to the forward’s father and agent.
Neymar was strongly linked with a return to Camp Nou before the European transfer window closed this month in what became a summer-long transfer saga.
The Brazil superstar was said to be keen to go back to Barca two years after controversially leaving for a world-record €222million (£200m/$249m.
The closing of the transfer window without a deal appeared to signal an end to the transfer saga, with Barcelona president Josep Maria Bartomeu confirming the La Liga champions would not be making a renewed bid in the January transfer window.
Neymar Sr, though, has cast fresh doubt on his son’s long-term future in the French capital.
“The negotiations between clubs are not over,” he said in an appearance at Edinburgh Sports Conference.
“A Brazilian just wants to be where he is happy and he was very happy at Barcelona. When his friends asked him if he want to go back, it upset him.”
