Neymar turns down Chelsea to stay at Santos
Neymar staying at the Vila - for now at least
The news that Chelsea did not want to hear was revealed Thursday evening when Brazil super star, Neymar, pledged his future to current club Santos. Chelsea had offered around £17 million for the 18-year-old. Even though this fell short of Santos' valuation, there was pressure on the player from his agent and also his father to accept the offer.
