Barcelona and Neymar rumours
Sports paper l’Esportiu de Catalunya, for their part, say that “despite the rumours, Barça executives aren't worried", however broadsheet La Vanguardia reports that the player's silence is beginning to cause serious concern at the highest levels in the Camp Nou.
Neymar himself has said he is "happy" at the Camp Nou, but contradictory reports say that the star has told PSG's Brazilian players that he'll be playing with them this coming season.
