Neymar's response to reports he wants to return to Barcelona

The Brazilian took to social media to give his two penneth on the reports, using Instagram stories to publish a firm message.

Spanish publication 'Mundo Deportivo' claimed in midweek that the Samba star had set his sights on securing a move back to his former club, though, senior club officials have since said that there is no interest from the Catalans in a deal.

The player himself already appears to be sick of the talk, posting a collage of the various publications running the story with the caption "fake news" superimposed over the top of them.

Neymar also denied reports that he had met up with a former girlfriend in Barcelona, saying rather sarcastically: "I would like to be Superman, but I can't be in two places at the same time. I can't teleport."

Barcelona and Neymar are due to meet in the near future in court, with the Brazilian continuing to demand the payment of a €28m bonus for signing a new contract, with the club countering with a demand for €75m in compensation for breaking his contract, damages and fines.
