The intrigue surrounding Neymar's future at Barcelona took another twist when the Brazilian star said on Saturday that he would be in Shanghai on Monday.
It comes a day after a major event organiser in China said a meet-and-greet with the forward on Monday in Shanghai was off because he and his advisers were busy with transfer business.
That added to swirling speculation that the unsettled 25-year-old could be poised to join Paris Saint-Germain for a record-breaking €222 million.
Footage also emerged of Neymar having a training-ground altercation with new Barcelona signing Nelson Semedo while in Miami, where they play Real Madrid later Saturday in a high-profile friendly.
Then Neymar sent a first message on Weibo, China's equivalent of Twitter, saying: "Greetings to the fans in China! I’m Neymar Jr, this is my official Weibo account."
I am going to be sharing my own personal experiences here with Chinese fans.
"I'm looking forward to your following and reposting! See you in Shanghai on Monday!"
