Neymar’s father company, NN Consultoria, has
responded to the latest attempt by Spanish
prosecutors, to jail the Barcelona forward and
insist they will be cleared of any wrongdoing.
The authorities want a two-year prison sentence
and €10 million fine for the Brazil forward, as well
as jail terms for his parents, for alleged corruption
involved in his transfer to Barcelona from Santos
in 2013.
An investment group, DIS, which owned 40% of
Neymar’s economic rights, claims it received less
money than it was supposed to get after the
transfer.
NN Consultoria has now issued a statement
claiming the latest reports are not a new
development, as the case was reopened in
September.
The statement read: “In relation to the news
published on Wednesday of the accusations
against Neymar Jr. and his father, Neymar da
Silva Santos, we reiterate it is the same process
reopened in September 2016, which had been filed
by Judge Jose de la Mata.
“The parties have not been notified of the opening
of the indictment of the Public Ministry or of the
period in which the defence may be filed. We
remain calm because all contracts were signed
with respect to legal, ethical and moral procedures
and with the knowledge of Santos and Barcelona.
“We are sure that time will offer all positive
responses.”
