Barcelona have refused to admit defeat in their pursuit of Paris Saint-Germain star Neymar, with club spokesman Guillermo Amor saying they will see how talks proceed through to the transfer deadline.
Neymar has been the centre of an ongoing transfer battle between La Liga giants Barca, hoping for a reunion with the Brazil star, and Real Madrid, as the clubs hope to pry him away from PSG.
The Ligue 1 champions, who signed Neymar from Barca in 2017 for €222 million (£201m/$245m), have admitted they are willing to let their star go, but have insisted a strong offer is required to force their hand.
