Barcelona has achieved one of the most spectacular transfers of summer by bringing Neymar from Santos, in exchange of 57.5 million euros.
The Brazilian has already shown that the amount paid by the Blaugrana grouping has achieved its purpose, and was a decisive player for the Catalans in the last episode of El Clasico, between Barcelona and Real Madrid (2-1), but it seems that also manages replace Messi while the Argentine star is injured. In last night’s game with Celtic, he scored a hat-trick.
Although repeatedly announced officially that the amount of Neymar’s transfer was 57,5 million euros, of wich 17,5 millions to Santos and 40 millions on behalf of an impresario company, the Catalan club is investigated for these amounts.
Sandro Rosell was prosecuted and will have to prove in court the official documents of money transfers made on account of transfer of Neymar.
From the Catalan club accounts missing the 57.5 million euro, the contract with Santos and proof of payment has been made public, but it never happened the same with the 40 million that Barcelona president claims that the company paid to the impresario company.
The law in Spain suspected that the two parties would have understood for a lesser amount, but the complicity would have taken more than the Catalan club’s accounts.
