Barcelona have denied having to pay a commission to Andre Cury out of the €222m transfer fee received when Neymar controversially left Camp Nou to join French giants Paris Saint-Germain in a world record deal last summer.
Cury, who is the 'technical secretary' of Barcelona in South America, helps seal Barça signings, playing a key role when Arthur arrived from Gremio this summer and also playing a decisive part when Neymar made the original switch from Santos in 2013.
Rumours in Spain have surfaced suggesting that part of agreement when Neymar signed included Cury personally receiving a 3% commission from any future sale, meaning that he would have been entitled to €6.
