Barcelona chief Zubi: We're in contact with Neymar

Barcelona sports chief Andoni Zubizarreta says they're in direct contact with injured Brazil star Neymar.

Neymar is nursing a serious back injury, which has ended his World Cup campaign.

"We are in direct contact with the Brazilian Confederation's doctors, we know that he is at home and stable," revealed Zubi.

"This is not a common injury and so it's not easy to say … but Neymar will be given all the time he needs to recover."
