Rumours about a potential Neymar move to the Bernabeu never cease to circulate and now all eyes are on the Real Madrid dressing room.

'Marca' claimed today that Real's dressing room would be delighted to welcome the Brazilian striker to Madrid

The Spanish news outlet provided a round-up of quotes that have emanated from the 'Los Blancos' camp, starting with Casemiro: "With the quality he has, I'd definitely sign him," said Neymar's compatriot. "He should know we'd welcome him with open arms at Real Madrid," he added. 

Nevertheless, Casemiro admitted it's unlikely we'll see 'Ney' in the famous white jersey of the Spanish capital anytime soon: "I don't think he'll come this summer, but I guess you'll have to ask Florentino."

Other outspoken characters involve Dani Carvajal and Raphael Varane. The Spaniard was unequivocal on his stance: "Of course I'd sign him." The Frenchman could only agree: "Everyone knows he's a player with an incredible amount of talent, I'd definitely sign him."

Real captain Sergio Ramos also gave his two cents on the Neymar affair: "I like playing with the best and it's clear Neymar is one of the best. It's easier for him to come from PSG than directly from Barcelona."

Finally, another of Neymar's compatriots, Marcelo, was very optimistic about a potential transfer for the Parisian No. 10: "It'd be great if Neymar came to Madrid and I think he'd fit in well in the team. One day he'll play for Madrid."
