Santos president Roma blasts Barcelona: Gabigol? You still owe us money!

Santos president Modeste Roma has hit back at Barcelona over Gabriel Barbosa's transfer row.

Barca have reported Santos to FIFA after Gabigol was sold to Inter Milan last week - despite the Blaugrana having first refusal on the striker.

Roma barked: "Barça has a complaint? Let them do what they want!

"Remember they still say they do not have to pay €2m in the contract Neymar."

Roma was referring to a clause in their sale of Neymar which reportedly states Barca must pay a fee to Santos should the Brazilian make the top three of the Ballon d'Or.
