Jordi Cases claims he is satisfied by the explanations offered by president Josep Maria Bartomeu over the controversial deal and will not pursue legal action against the clubBarca insisted from the outset that they paid €57.1 million for Neymar, but Jordi Cases called for greater transparency in the breakdown of the controversial transfer and, when his pleas were ignored by the club, he decided to take Rosell to court late last year.
Cases was unhappy at the lack of clarity surrounding the €40m payment received by Neymar's parents, while one of the third parties involved in the move claimed Santos and Barca had colluded to cut them out of the deal altogether.
Rosell came under increasing pressure in January and eventually decided to resign, leaving vice-president Josep Maria Bartomeu to take over and face further legal action from Cases.
But in his first press conference, Bartomeu revealed the documents behind the complex deal which confirmed the total operation had in fact cost Barca €86.2m and some nine months on, Cases has decided to bring an end to the legal action.
"Mr. Jordi Cases Guarc, member of FC Barcelona number 57,819, said this morning in a letter to club president Josep Maria Bartomeu that he is satisfied by information obtained through legal proceedings in relation to the recruitment of Santos player Neymar da Silva Jr. and other related contracts with the signing," Barca said in a statement posted on their official site on Tuesday.
Cases is also expected to reach an agreement to end his legal case against Rosell on Wednesday
