Santos have denied rumours that Neymar is set to leave the club to join Barcelona after yet more reports emerged linking the Brazilian to Spain.
The Peixe vice-president Odilio Rodrigues denied that he told a Spanish radio station that Neymar wants to leave the club and is now setting the record straight.
“Interviews through the phone are a complicated thing. A Spanish radio station called, but that thing they put in the paper is not true," he told Globoesporte.
“I told him [the reporter] that I had read that [that Neymar said he wanted to leave] in a newspaper. They either tried too hard to get something out of it, or they simply misunderstood what I said."
“It is not true either [that Santos are willing to start welcoming bids for Neymar]. He asked me if there were any clubs interested, and I said yes, of course, every transfer window there are new bids for him coming in, and we don"t expect it to be different this time."
