Neymar was about to, at the age of 13 Real Madrid to switch, but the deal fell through at a request from the player’s family.
Former Real Madrid sporting director Ramón Martínez spoke BRAND on the Brazilian’s failed move to the Bernabeu.
“Neymar trained here for 10 days when he was 13. Robinho’s representative, Wagner Ribeiro, told me about him, but he had a thousand requests from boys who wanted to come to training. He paid for Ney’s trip himself and we let him play with his peers. And, phew, he was a real alien. He showed amazing dribbling and scored a goal. Then he gave a great assist and scored another goal.
We had already negotiated everything with his father: the monthly salary, the contract, but everything stalled. There was a problem: his grandparents lived in Brazil and we had to buy them a house for 60,000 euros. The club didn’t agree and the deal was rejected.”
Neymar finally joined Real Madrid’s main rivals in 2013 Barcelona and spent four successful years there before moving to Paris. In 186 games for the Blaugranas, he scored 105 goals and provided 76 assists.
