Barcelona chief Raül Sanllehí has been in Brazil this week.
Local media sources suggest Barca have tabled a €60 million offer to Santos for Neymar - which would see the wing wizard join them in January 2013.
Other reports state Santos have suspended talks with all rival clubs after fielding an offer of €70 million from Real Madrid.
For the moment, Santos have not made an official reaction to the claims.
Meanwhile, it's emerged Neymar has a clause in his current deal which will see him take ten per cent of any transfer fee he generates for Santos.
