NEYMAR’S AGENT HAS ruled out the possibility of the Barcelona forward moving to Manchester United this summer.
It was claimed on Friday that the Premier League side have made a covert approach for the Brazil international, with club CEO Ed Woodward travelling to Barcelona on several occasions in recent weeks.
But Wagner Ribeiro says there is absolutely no truth in the rumours and insists the 23-year-old will not be leaving Camp Nou.
“There’s nothing,” he told Globoesporte. “This is summer window speculation. It does not exist. He has three more years on his contract. English newspapers are very speculative. Barcelona never think about selling Neymar and he is very happy there.”
