his contract at Barcelona and has called on the fans to
stop whistling the team.
Barcelona forward Neymar has said there is no question he
wants to agree a new contract with the Liga champions.
The club's technical secretary Robert Fernandez told Catalunya
Radio last week that talks over a new deal were progressing
well, adding his confidence that Neymar would stay at Camp
Nou "for life".
The Brazil star has claimed his future is in the hands of his
father and agent Neymar Snr, but has made it clear he is happy
at the club after making his 100th appearance in the 2-1 loss to
Sevilla last time out.
"I'm very happy at the club and in Barcelona, where I've adapted
very well," he told Mundo Deportivo.
"I've got three more years on my contract and I leave these
issues with my father. My only concern at the moment is to be
focused on helping the team and to keep winning titles with
Barca.
"Of course [I want to renew], but we'll talk about that later.
"It means a lot [to play 100 games] because it's always been a
dream for me to play here. Since I was a child I've wanted to
play here and to reach 100 games for this club is a great
honour."
Neymar is among a handful of Barca stars to have been
subjected to whistles from the crowd during recent
performances, with the unrest at Camp Nou growing loudest
during the first half of their 2-1 Champions League win over
Bayer Leverkusen.
And the former Santos star has urged supporters to get behind
the team rather than single players out in difficult matches.
"The truth is I was very surprised, we don't like it when they
whistle," he said. "It's part of football but we were very sad
because we try everything to get a win for Barcelona.
"They need to be with us like they were last season, believing
until the last minute. If they're with us, we're stronger."
