Barça made their bid and want Adeyemi now, waiting on BVB decision.
🚨💙❤️ João Cancelo, expected to be a Barcelona player by the end of the window — never been in doubt.

WE ARE NOT TALKING ABOUT THIS GENERATIONAL PAU CUBARSI CAMPAIGN ENOUGH! 🇪🇸🤯
The only moment in today's entire match when Brazil commanded any respect was on Neymar's penalty.
Before the kick, Norway's goalkeeper was dancing around and clowning, trying to get inside Neymar's head.
Neymar stepped up, stayed completely calm, and buried it.
After scoring, he walked over to Norway's goalkeeper and reminded him exactly who Neymar is and who Brazil is at the World Cup.
Neymar was the ONLY player on that entire team of cowards who demanded respect, stood his ground, SCORED A GOAL, and then, after it was all over, broke down in tears following yet another World Cup elimination.
What I find funny is that I constantly see Brazilian soccer pages complaining about how this generation of players is soft, has no killer instinct, no fighting spirit, isn't made up of real men, and has no testosterone.
But the moment one MAN actually acted like a MAN and demanded RESPECT... they're now desperately trying to push a narrative to turn the Brazilian public against Neymar.
It's not going to work.
Now, if you're reading this and you don't live in Brazil, let me explain the ONLY reason why some Brazilians and much of the Brazilian media have been going after Neymar for years:
Neymar is politically conservative. He openly supported Bolsonaro.
Yes, that's really it. There is no other reason. Ever since he publicly endorsed Jair Bolsonaro in the 2022 election, people suddenly started questioning whether he was ever that good in the first place.
You have no idea how MASSIVE the campaign was from major media outlets and several soccer journalists to keep Neymar off this World Cup squad.
The funniest part is that when Neymar Jr.'s name was announced, people literally celebrated in the streets because Neymar is still, by far, the biggest name in Brazilian soccer over the last 15 years. Not even close.
He's the people's champion. He reminds Brazilians of the joy of playing soccer.
Today we lost, but we lost with dignity because one MAN, Neymar Jr., made sure Brazil earned at least a little respect, even in defeat. Something every other COWARD on that team failed to do.
Best of luck to Haaland and Norway. I'll be rooting for them to make the final.
