Neymar To Barcelona Fans: I Wont Go Any Where !

Neymar tells Barcelona fans: I wont go any where

Barcelona star Neymar has insisted that he will sign a new contract at Camp Nou amid interest from Manchester United.

The Brazil international held talks with the Red Devils over the summer but has allayed supporters' fears that he may turn down the offer of an improved deal with the Liga champions.

"The renewal is underway. I have many years of contract here and I'll sign, calm. The fans have to be calm," he told beIN Sports.

The forward's father had recently confirmed that the Brazilian held talks with Louis van Gaal's side over the summer, but the former Santos man suggested he is happy in Catalonia. 

Neymar has been under added pressure in recently games due to the prolonged injury lay-off for Lionel Messi, but the 23-year-old was in scintillating form in Barcelona's 5-2 win over Rayo Vallecano in Saturday's La Liga clash, netting four goals and providing a constant threat for the treble winners. 

Head coach Luis Enrique praised the player as "electric" following his performance in the win, as the Catalans look to retain their title.

The Asturain coach's side face BATE Borisov in the Champions League on Tuesday with the players looking to turn a corner in the competition, as the side were booed during spells in their last European fixture against Bayer Leverkusen, despite their remarkable treble just months earlier.

Arsenal Boss Eyes Summer Clear-outs

The midfield trios' contracts are set to expire at the end of the season and it is understood the Gunners are planning for life without them, claim the  London Evening Standard . All three midfielders have been bit-part players this season with Arsene Wenger believed to be having concerns over their fitness and consistency to perform at a high level.  Rosicky, who turnt 35 last month, is expected to be sidelined until after Christmas following knee surgery and has failed to play a single minute of first-team football.  The Czech was set to leave the Gunners last summer but Arsenal invoked a clause in his previous contract to keep him at the Emirates for a further 12 months.  By leaving Arsenal, this will allow Rosicky to finish his career with his first club Sparta Prague - which he is open to.  The same can be said for Flamini as there are those who believe his best days are behind him too, with the poor performance in the Capital One Cup exit...

Euros Disappointments a lesson for Martial, says Deschamps
