Santos says Neymar is not for sale

SANTOS has no plans to sell teenage striker Neymar and wants to keep him at the club for several more years, Santos President Luis Alvaro de Oliveira Ribeiro has said.

Neymar, who helped Santos win the South American club title last week and is on duty with Brazil at the Copa America, had been the subject of offers from some of Europe's biggest clubs. The gifted 19-year-old has been linked with the likes of Real Madrid and Chelsea. "In the face of continuous speculation over the future of our crack (player) Neymar by the national and international press, I state that for Santos FC, Neymar is not negotiable for technical, market and attachment reasons," he said.
