Neymar became the eighth most expensive signing in history by moving from Santos to Barcelona in a deal worth £48.6 million on Monday, uniting the Brazil forward with Argentina's Lionel Messi in a formidable attacking partnership. He have signed a five-year contract after choosing Barça over Real Madrid to conclude a two-year bidding contest between the Spanish rivals. The Barça vice president Josep Bartomeu said they had expected to pay £34m but that "the interference of other clubs" inflated the price, alluding to Madrid's involvement. Only Cristiano Ronaldo, Zinedine Zidane, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Kaká, Luis Figo, Hulk and Fernando Torres have cost a club more than Neymar. source : http://www.guardian.co.uk/
I am Barcelona fan for a long time, so when i heard this news, I am so excited !!! Well, I also like Neymar as he is great soccer player and had led Santos to won the Copa Libertadores in 2011. He also posses a good quality technique even at the young age of 21 years old.
Above are the video for you to see with your own eyes of his great skills and techniques !!
Since I am curious about Neymar's transfer, I have made some reading about it. Apparently Barca have 18 month tie Neymar from Santos.
Sports daily research from SPORT was told that Barcelona and Santos was discussed about it in November 2011 where Barca had paid the down payment for the original Brazilian club of 10 million euros while payment for the requested transfer is 45 million euros.
When he was ask about his transfer to Barcelona, he said that "I am very happy, very moved to be a Barcelona player and fulfil my dream," Neymar told the tens of thousands of fans who turned out to watch him run out on to the pitch at Camp Nou. He wore a Barcelona shirt with "Neymar Jr" on the back.
As a fan of both Neymar and Barcalona FC, i wish all the best and hope to see great game from Neymar in the future!!!
