Stoichkov: I can't see Neymar at Real, he won't win what he did at Barcelona LaLiga - Barcelona He dismissed the rumours

Neymar is unlikely to return to LaLiga and cross the Clasico divide, according to former Barcelona striker Hristo Stoichkov.

Last summer, the Brazilian departed the Blaugrana for Paris Saint-Germain and in doing so, became the most expensive player in the history of the game.

Despite reports suggesting that he is unhappy in France and linking him with Real Madrid, the Bulgarian explained why he can't see that happening.

"I don't see him ending up at Real Madrid or playing for them," he told Radio MARCA as he celebrated turning 52.

"I wish him all the best in everything that he does but I don't think that he would win everything like he did at Barcelona."

Given his own impressive scoring record during his playing days at the Camp Nou, Stoichkov also wanted to reserve special praise for two of the current side's striking heroes.

"I must say that I've never seen anything like Leo [Messi] and every day I'm surprised by something new that he does," he continued.

"When he was a youngster I knew him and he was always humble and hard-working, a real fighter.

"Luis Suarez is someone I have always admired too. He has gone through some tough times like the World Cup suspension which was very unfair.

"He's one of the players who has most identified himself with the Barcelona shirt and he is a real superstar."
