Santos star Neymar: If I wanted to be millionaire, I would have joined Chelsea

Santos star Neymar is having to bat away accusations of becoming big headed after he saw offers from Chelsea and West Ham United turned down during the summer market.

Avai coach Antonio Lopes claimed Neymar was treating his players with disrespect over the manner of his performance last week.

"If I wanted to be a millionaire, I would have gone to Chelsea," responded Neymar. "My friends are still the same, I will always be humble.

"I admire coach Lopes, but he is wrong on this."
