Neymar’s New Contract with Barcelona Kills Off Transfer Rumours

Neymar’s new contract with Barcelona was a necessity as many Barca transfer rumors started spreading about the Brazilian’s departure…

Online sportsbooks in Spain didn’t count the possibility of Neymar’s departure too likely, but now thanks to Neymar’s new contract with Barcelona, it’s a definite no-no to bet on Neymar leaving Barca. The new deal has been confirmed by Barca president Josep Maria Bartomeu as well as the Brazilian star himself on his social media sites.

It’s not impossible to purchase him…

…but it would be a record fee if someone wanted to sign the Barcelona forward: Neymar’s new contract has set the wunderkid’s buy-out clause at €200 million. Should anyone pay that price, he would instantly become the most expensive player of all time. Although, together with the fines and hidden costs that Baca paid for him, maybe he already is…

His departure might have been an actual threat…

Back in the days when Neymar was but one of the greatest talents of the football world, both Barcelona and Real Madrid were in the race for signing him, together with half of the best European clubs. The two Spanish giants were most likely to sign him though, and ever since he became one of the best players of FC Barcelona.

However, extremely rich football czars don’t give up easily on their dreams and Neymar definitely did become dream transfer for many of these football czars, including Real Madrid President Florentino Pérez, PSG owner Nasser Al-Khelaifi as well as Manchester City owner Sheikh Mansour.

Neymar’s new contract with Barcelona did not make it impossible to buy off the Brazilian as he has a buy-out clause in his new contract: €200 million, which is the amount of money that clubs like Man City or PSG could easily pay off. However, those who bet on sports in Spain, don’t see it as much of a threat towards Barceona as the player himself would most probably not want to join either of those clubs…

New contract to help him concentrate at the Olympics…

Neymar’s new contract with Barcelona will definitely come handy for him as the Rio 2016 Olympic Games are coming up soon. As it has been announced, Neymar will form part of the Brazilian national football team and he will be the greatest star of the squad. People will expect him to give a series of terrific performances and that’s what he will be capable of doing without having to listen to the latest Barca transfer rumors about his departure from the Catalan capital.

Online sportsbooks give him and his side pretty good chances in triumphing in Rio as the Brazilians are favourites. Mostly because their squad will be strong enough to succeed with the likes of Neymar, Douglas Costa and Marquinhos, among others. And well, the hosting nation always start off with a bit of an undeserved advantage on all major tournaments, it probably won’t be any different in the Olympic Games either.
