Implementation review, Tuesday, the president of the FC Barcelona Josep Maria Bartomeu came remind that Neymar was far from over. Reminder, the Blaugrana staff is accused of having reduced the price of the transfer of the Brazilian winger in July 2013, moving it from EUR 94 million to 57 on official documents. For what purpose?
The most commonly mentioned thesis acknowledges the willingness of the catalan club to escape Spanish taxation. However, as revealed Wednesday by El Economista, this maneuver would allow him to save that 3 M€, a trifle for an institution as powerful as Barca. The daily advance two other reasons why leaders lie.
The first held in the ambition of FC Barcelona to distinguish themselves from the expensive recruitment policy of his rival, Real Madrid. By purchasing Neymar for only 57 M€, the Blaugrana hoped to claim a power of attraction higher than the Merengue, forced at the same time to pay almost 100 M€ for the services of Gareth Bale.
Lionel Messi would also, indirectly, its share of responsibility in this matter. Artificially lower the price of Neymar allowed Barcelona leaders not to offend the ego of the international Argentine, anxious to remain 'the' star of the team. As the wages of Neymar was calculated in proportion to the purchase price.
A strategy that has not really borne fruit since Messi, having got wind of the fees by teammate upon his arrival in Catalonia (spoken informally 15 M€ per season), received last may an advantageous contract extension, bringing to nearly 20 M€ his annual salary
