Barcelona's club president says the European champions will consider offering Neymar a contract extension amid speculation that Manchester United are interested in signing the Brazil striker.
Josep Maria Bartomeu tells Catalunya Radio that “in the next few months we will talk about an extension”.
“He must stay, not just three years, but five or 10 years more.”
The 23-year-old Neymar is under contract until 2018. Media reports in Brazil speculate that United are willing to pay his €190 milllion (Dh795.8m) buyout clause.
Neymar scored 39 goals last season – his second with the club – to help Barcelona win the Champions League, La Liga and Copa del Rey treble.
He has yet to play this season while recovering from the mumps.

Labour dispute
The insured employee may still file an ILOE claim even if a labour dispute is ongoing post termination, but the insurer may suspend or reject payment, until the courts resolve the dispute, especially if the reason for termination is contested. The outcome of the labour court proceedings can directly affect eligibility.
