Santos president Luis Alvaro Ribeiro says striker Neymar joining Barcelona before 2014 is 'impossible'.
The Brazilian has scored 83 goals for Santos in just 144 domestic appearances, form that has seen him become a regular for his country.
And the 20-year-old hit the headlines again for his impressive performances at the London Olympics, in which he has netted two goals in three matches for Brazil.
Despite the fact that Barcelona have publicly expressed their desire to lure the prodigy to the Nou Camp, Ribeiro says any pursuit of the contracted star will be fruitless, at least for the time being.
