Neymar has been repeatedly linked with with the Blaugrana and Goal.com exclusively revealed last week that the 21-year-old will be heading to Catalunya in July for talks. However, in discussing his compatriot's chances of establishing himself as a modern great, Ronaldo appears to have suggested Neymar's rumoured switch to Barca is a done deal.
