Former Barcelona director Toni Freixa has said he is surprised by the club's interest in Paris Saint-Germain forward Neymar and that he doesn't want to see the player return for a second spell at the Camp Nou.
Barcelona have until 2 September to complete a deal for Neymar in the current window. If the switch was to go ahead, it would see the 27-year-old head back to the club just two years on from a world-record move to France.
After Blaugrana director Javier Bordas said on Tuesday that the club was "closer" to completing a deal for Neymar, Freixa said he is staggered by the team's desire to re-sign the player, per Radio Marca (h/t Marca).
