Santos president Luis Oliveira has confirmed that Real Madrid are one of the sides who have come knocking for Neymar.
The Spanish capital club have been mooted as one of Europe's giants closely monitoring the situation of the 19-year-old, who is currently with the Brazil national side for Copa America.
Oliveira revealed last week he would not cash in on Neymar, and he has now affirmed his stance, while confirming Real Madrid have made enquiries about the player.
"We are interested in pleasing Neymar and we will offer him whatever is necessary for him to stay in Brazil and not go to Europe," the Santos supremo told La Sexta.
"Five club presidents who want to sign him and offer him a lot of money have contacted me but when the 2014 World Cup arrives, he will be here.
"[Real Madrid president] Florentino Perez is one of those who have called me, but if he had not done that, he would be a president with no vision for football."
Neymar was a starter in Brazil's 0-0 draw in Copa America with Venezuela, a match that his side were expected to win. However, he and his team-mates failed to impress.
