Neymar remains calm despite Santos's latest claims

Barcelona forward Neymar remains calm, despite his former side Santos pushing for him to be banned from football for six months

The Brazilian's representatives have once again pointed out that he has in his power a document from the former Santos president allowing him to negotiate his future with any club he wanted. 

It's a document which is dated 2011, which is when the 23-year-old was given permission to talk about his future. 

In addition, Neymar's team have also stated that Santos knew about the player's transfer to Barcelona, which saw them paid 17.1 million euros. 

That figure, they say, was one which the Brazilian club were always in agreement with (the transfer fee was shared between three parties which all owned a percent of Neymar's economic rights). 

For their part, FC Barcelona, who fully support Neymar, are also relaxed about the latest details to come out. 

The Blaugrana will support their player in whatever way necessary, but, like Neymar, feel the documentation means Santos don't have a case - even if they are trying to claim 55 million euros.
