Neymar key as father welcomes Barcelona approach for Gerson

Fluminense whizid Gerson is delighted with interest from Barcelona. The 17 year-old prospect has been in talks with Juventus for several month, but Barca have now come forward.

"Juve have a good plan, but going to Barcelona would be absolutely wild," said Gerson's father, Marcos Antonio da Silva.

Globoesporte says Barcelona have already had a meeting with Marcos Antonio, and that he met the Neymars (father and son). Neymar Jr was quick to tell them how happy he is at Barcelona.
