Barcelona Transfer News: Neymar Turned Down Real, Davinson Sanchez Rumours

Neymar's representatives visited Real Madrid last year after doubts emerged about his future at Barcelona, according to reports.

Spanish outlet Diario Gol (h/t Jack Otway of the Express) reported Los Blancos were "determined" to land the Brazil icon last summer, and president Florentino Perez "was confident he could lure" the player to move to the Spanish capital. Neymar was in discussions with Barca over a new contract during Real's interest.

The player is once again at the heart of a number of fresh rumours, with Manchester United monitoring his situation at the Camp Nou, per Otway.
