Official: Neymar has extended his contract with "Barcelona"

Speeches about Neymar's transfer to another team should stop. It has been officially announced that the 24-year-old Brazilian has signed a new contract with the "Barcelona" club.

The new contract will be valid for the next five seasons, and the buyout clause will increase to 222 million euros from the next season, and after another year - to 250 million euros.

The leader of the Brazilian national team was actively sought after by the "Man Utd" team, which tried in every possible way to invite the forward to the "Premier" league competitions.

The signing ceremony for the new contract will take place on July 15, before the player leaves for the Olympic Games.

Since arriving in Catalonia in 2013, Neymar has scored 85 goals in 141 matches and has already won eight trophies.
