Neymar could leave Barcelona over tax issues

Barcelona star Neymar will seek legal and tax advice before committing his long-term future to the Catalan club, his father has stated.

The La Liga champions want to tie down the Brazilian to an extended deal, with his current contract running until 2018.
His father believes he could leave the Nou Camp if he continues to be targeted by Spanish and Brazilian tax We've begun contract renewal talks, but there are outstanding issues that concern us, and which need to be resolved," Neymar senior said to Spanish radio station Cadena Ser. "Since we arrived to Spain we have been under attack (from the tax office) and it has extended to Brazil.
"For the last two-and-a-half years, we have had to defend ourselves from accusations.
"We will respect Neymar's contract with Barca but regarding the contract extension, we need a deal that gives us peace of mind for Neymar, my companies and my family.
"We are not thinking of leaving Spain but we have a problem.
"We've never experienced such major tax issues.
"I don't want to use the word persecution, but if the working environment here is not good, we won't be able to remain in Spain and will have to leave the country.".
