I'm not sure what would be best for Neymar, staying in Brazil for longer, leaving for a big club ASAP or moving to a lesser team first, but I'm with La Furia on Neymar being an unecessary gamble given our current defense. Sure, if we could've gotten him for 20 million, then why not? But for 40-50, I'd rather pass.
PS: I bought Neymar on FIFA 13 
Well he's not staying much longer regardless. His contract is up in 2014. So unless he signs an extension, he's got at the most one more season left in Brazil.
Seeing as he's whoring himself out there now talking about PSG, I doubt there's a "pre deal" locked in place for him. Thats more likely just crap from Sport and such. There will definitely be a bidding war. And if Santos are not run by idiots, they will take the highest bidder. And if Neymar refuses, then he could just sit out his contract and leave for free in 2014 free to negotiate with whomever. But I don't think it'll come to that.
My guess is that there will be offers for him in the summer of 2013 and Santos will sell. PSG I could see being a very attractive option to him. He'd make more money, would have less pressure to perform, and he has his Brazilian teammates surrounding him, and now that I'm getting the feeling that Dani Alves may very well leave too with his recent comments, Neymar would probably find the PSG offer more tantalizing than Barcelona where he'd have the potential to be benched by other players who know the system better than him, and he'd have to compete for playing time. Even Zlatan was benched by Pedro and Bojan and he had the highest salary on this team. The only untouchable here is Messi.
Makes more sense to buy a world class CB doesn't it?
