Barcelona head coach Xavi Hernandez has refused any possibility to bring Neymar back to the club. The offer was for the Brazilian to go back to Camp Nou as part of the Ousmane Dembele deal.
Representatives of PSG have proposed the exchange, but the Catalans are firmly against it, because they prefer to get the 50 million euros, which will help them in the Financial Fair Play.
The former Barca midfielder and now coach does not dispute the qualities of Neymar, but according to him the dressing room does not need such a player at the moment .
