Barca's former man in Brazil spoke on the topic

Andre Cury is one of the most influential men in the Brazilian football world. The former Barca scout and the man who discovered Neymar and later represented him, spoke about the No 10’s future at PSG. In an interview with El Litoral, he said Neymar would play with Messi again, “but not at PSG, at Barca”. 

“I would like to see Ney with Leo again, but I’d like it much more if it was in Barcelona. I doubt it can happen at another side. It will be in Barcelona, where they should never have been apart. I would be very happy to see them together at Barca.”

The agent confirmed that Barca were close to resigning Neymar and said that the player’s decision to go to Paris was a mistake.

“Yes, it was like that, two years ago Barca asked for him and we tried to move him back. There was very little between being able to do the deal and taking him from Paris to Barcelona.

“Neymar has the doors open to Barca. Fans know that he was mistaken when he left and even Neymar has publicly said that, he admitted it.”

Cury is currently in Argentina scouting players. He thinks it’s good news that Laporta is back.

“I think that Laporta is a very good president for Barcelona and they can be reunited (Ney and Messi).”

On the Argentine’s future, he added: “I think that Leo will not leave Barca, he will not go. He started and should finish his European career with Barcelona. I’m sure of that because it’s a very nice story for a player who is respected worldwide and has taken the image of Argentina to everywhere in the world with a lot of love.”
