Real Madrid have 'zero chance' of signing Barcelona star Neymar, according to his father.
Earlier in the month the players agent Wagner Riberiro, revealed the star has three clubs following him, who are prepared to activate his €190 million release clause at Barcelona.
These three clubs are believed to be Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester United and bitter rivals Real Madrid.
Neymar's father has sicne hinted the player will be staying at the Camp Nou, whilst specifically ruling out a move to the Santiago Bernabeu.
"The possibility of him ending up there [at Real Madrid] is zero. We respect him [Wagner Ribeiro] a lot, put aside from myself, the only person who can talk about Neymar’s career is Neymar himself," Neymar Snr told Fox Brazil.
"Neymar’s owners are Barcelona. Any proposals, any notifications, or any formality that comes in respect to Neymar, without question passes through Barcelona and Barcelona alone. He’s still under contract with the club and they know everything that’s going on
"There’s lots of speculation and it’s clear he’s become mixed up in all that. People know that there are various clubs interested in him for his football, but they don’t want to say that he’s talking to them or having any dealings.
"People have said 10,000 different things about my son. Neymar has a contract at Barcelona, and he has two years left. That’s the only certainty. He has to obey that contract, besides, he’s happy at the club. The speculation will go on, like it has been for a while, but everyone’s used it by now."
