On Monday, reports in Spain suggested that the Brazil international was interested in returning to the Catalan club. 

Neymar represented the Blaugrana between 2013 and 2017, before completing a world-record and controversial transfer to Paris Saint-Germain. 

Rumours have since suggested that Brazil's all-time record goalscorer has been open to a move back to his former side on a number of occasions, although this latest speculation has been shut down. 

According to Barca Universal, Neymar's camp has strongly denied the Al Hilal superstar's eagerness to return to Barca, calling the story "disrespectful" to his current team.
