Contrary to reports of Neymar’s sensational return to Barcelona, the star’s father has denied the reports, insisting they are not in talks to leave Paris Saint-Germain this summer.

The Daily Mail cite reports in Brazil claiming that Barcelona officials were set to meet with Neymar’s representatives to discuss his touted move back to the club.

Esporte Interativo reported that the Paris Saint-Germain star’s father and his lawyer are already in the Catalonian capital where they will be received by compatriot Andre Cury, who brokered the deal which saw Neymar leave Barca in 2017.

However, the player’s father has insisted this is not the case and that no negotiations have started.

‘It’s not planned anytime, I’m in Brazil and I’ll stay here until my son returns to Paris,’ he told Canal Supporters.

He also reaffirmed that Neymar is a PSG player and that no plans are in place for him to leave this summer despite rumours suggesting his future lies elsewhere.

Neymar only left Barcelona to join PSG for a world-record fee of £198million two years ago.

The Brazil star is currently on the comeback trail after injury ruled him out of the Copa America.

Meanwhile, Neymar is reportedly determined to secure a return to La Liga this summer but the league’s president, Javier Tebas, admitted he hopes the forward does not return to Barcelona this summer, insisting his behaviour is ‘not good for the competition’.
