Barcelona boss Pep Guardiola is spending part of this week discussing the prospect of signing Santos star Neymar.

Neymar is expected to leave Santos in the summer for €30 million and has a host of European giants chasing him, including Chelsea and Manchester United.

Guardiola is also interested - but needs to know more about Neymar's character and whether he will be a positive influence inside the locker room.

Barca are not interested in an auction and will also insist Neymar make it clear to Santos and his management team that he only wants to move to the Spanish champs.
