With speculations surrounding Neymar’s move to the Nou Camp, Tito Vilanova openly admitted that he never publicly spoke about signing the Brazilian star.
Recently there were rumours surrounding Neymar’s arrival at the Nou Camp.
The Brazilian star is considered to be one of the hottest properties in the transfer market and Barcelona are favourites to land him during the summer transfer window.
However, Tito Vilanova burnt the rumour mill by stating that he never spoke about signing the Brazilian youngster.
It all started when Barcelona faced Santos in the FIFA Club World Cup last season and the Catalan giants were against Neymar on the pitch.
Even though Barcelona humiliated the Brazilian club, the Spanish team kept on praising the Brazilian starlet, calling him as one of the most talented players in the world.
Currently Neymar is playing for the Brazilian national team in the Olympics and he has been performing phenomenally for them.
Many believe that an agreement between Barcelona and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Santos-c32532 has already been reached and Neymar will be signing a contract for the Catalan giants soon.
However, Tito Vilanova has now ended all the transfer rumours by stating that he does not require the services of a player like Neymar.
In fact, as soon as Vilanova took charge of the Catalan club, he said that he wants to sign two defensive players. While the first defensive player was http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jordi-Alba-c19111, La Blaugrana are still searching for a second player to buy in this transfer window.
While speaking about http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Neymar-c27639 and the transfer speculations surrounding him, Tito Vilanova said:
"I've never spoken about signing Neymar.”
Even though the transfer speculation has now ended after Vilanova openly admitted that he does not want the Brazilian star, but there is no doubt that Neymar would be an extraordinary addition to a team like http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604.
The Catalan giants were considered to be one of the best sides in the history of the world when Josep Guardiola was in charge. However, now with Tito Vilanova taking charge, many believe that he can continue the path of glory taken by Guardiola.
Barcelona are currently playing their pre-season friendly games, and will be taking on Manchester United on 8th of August.
