Santos vice-president Odilio Rodriguez believes that a move to Barcelona would be a good choice for striker Neymar to make, however he feels the ball is clearly in the Brazil international’s court.
Neymar is arguably the most wanted man in world football at present and Barcelona are just one of the clubs keen on the 21-year-old.
The Brazil star has also seen himself linked with Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid – but it is the Lionel Messi’s Catalan giants who appear to be in pole position for his signature.
And Rodriguez thinks if Neymar chose to join Barcelona it would not be a bad move at all.

"Barcelona is a great club with great players", the Santos vice-president told La Xarxa.
"They would be a good option for Neymar.
"We are aware of the interest in this player, but there are other clubs interested.Neymar must choose."
The vice-president did stress though that Santos are keen to keep Neymar at least until the end of his contract in 2014.
