Neymar denies Bayern talks

Santos star Neymar has denied talking to Brazil team-mate Dante about playing for Bayern Munich.

The Brazilian has been linked with a move to Europe for the past two years, with Barcelona and Real Madrid believed to be interested in signing the attacker, though he recently admitted he could see himself at the Bundesliga side.

After Brazil’s 2-1 defeat to England, Dante had revealed that Neymar had asked what life is like at the Bavarian side, but Neymar has denied having that conversation.

When asked about the claims by Kicker, Neymar responded: “No, no, we have not spoken.”

Dante has secured a permanent first-team spot in the Bayern defence after moving from Borussia Moenchengladbach in the middle of 2012.

Neymar has a contract with Santos until 2014, and is widely expected to leave South America following the 2014 World Cup.
