The 21-year-old's former club are furious that his father will not show them contracts signed with the Blaugrana, while DIS group are claiming the player breached a deal with them, Neymar's father is being taken to court by Santos over his refusal to show the club details of the deal he made with Barcelona in 2011.
The Brazil international moved to Camp Nou in June 2013 for a reported €57.1 million, although figures released by the Catalunya club's new president Josep Maria Bartomeu last Friday indicated the forward cost €86.2m, excluding wages. However, Santos received only €17.1m of the transfer fee, while €40m went to Neymar Sr's company N&N - co-owned by the 21-year-old's parents - which has caused the Peixe to become curious about the finer points of his deal with the Catalans.
The Selecao star's former club are furious that Neymar's father will only verbally tell them details of the deal and are taking the issue to the country's courts, while slamming the underhand tactics used by Barcelona to poach the player.
"There is a way we can know [if what Neymar SR is saying is true]," a Santos representative told Globo Esporte.
"Santos made an agreement whereby we sent the documents and everything relating to the negotiation.
"Neymar’s father called me and told me he would come here. He revealed that there was a confidentiality clause, meaning that he could talk, but not show us anything. Santos are going to dispute that [legally] and we are waiting for a response.
"When you have a figure paid such as €40m, what happens is that everybody is suspicious. We feel deeply upset by the statement made by Barcelona, because it wasn’t what we had negotiated."
