Barcelona agree deal to sign Neymar
Posted Tuesday, November 15, 2011 by Talksport.co.uk
Barcelona have signed a deal to buy Brazilian star Neymar in 2014, according to reports in Spain.
The striker had been expected to sign for Real Madrid, but last week agreed a new contract that will keep him at Santos until 2014.
And according to El Confidencial, that deal was signed after Barcelona President Sandro Rosell was able to confirm an agreement that the 19-year-old will head to the Nou Camp in three years' time.
That is reportedly against Pep Guardiola's wishes, with the Barcelona boss believing Lionel Messi and Neymar will struggle to play on the same side.
But Rosell has apparently moved to secure the deal for Neymar, although the transfer fee has yet to be made public.
