Santos sensation Neymar would listen to Chelsea offer

Santos forward Neymar has said he
would be open to a move to Premier
League side Chelsea, stating they are
one of the five clubs in the world any
player must give serious consideration
to.
The 20-year-old Brazil striker has been
targeted by European heavyweights
Barcelona, Real Madrid and Paris
Saint-Germain in recent months but
remains, for now, in his home
country.
He is, however, open to the idea of
making a move to London after his
international team-mate Oscar made
the move to Stamford Bridge during
the summer transfer window.
"It is very simple: if Barcelona are
interested you listen, if Real Madrid
are interested you listen, if Chelsea
are interested you listen," Neymar told
The Sun .
"There are maybe five clubs in the
world that you know you must at least
listen to. When the time is right I will
listen to to the right offers that my
agent has for me."
Former Internacional playmaker Oscar
has made an impressive start to his
Chelsea career, scoring twice on his
Champions League debut against
Juventus.
Neymar admitted that both he and
Barcelona full-back Dani Alves had
made sales pitches to him as he
contemplates a move to Europe.
"Oscar messages me to tell me what a
great club Chelsea is and what a great
city London is," he added. "He and
Dani are both very good salesmen for
their club."
The young forward has 48 goals in 95
league appearances for Santos, and
has already hit an impressive 13 goals
for the Brazilian national side in just
23 games.
