£95m Manchester United target could be sold, admits former President

The former club chief admitted that the financial situation of Barcelona at the moment is not very good due to the mismanagement of the current leadership and it could lead to asset stripping in future.

Neymar had an offer from Manchester United in the summer and it was confirmed by the player himself. However Barcelona were unwilling to let him go back then.

Laporta has claimed that Barcelona might need to sell some of their assets in order to balance the books and selling a great player would make sense.

The former President admitted to rejecting several offers for Lionel Messi and stated that the Argentine player is an integral part of Barcelona.
