Barca's possible motivation for allegedly lying in the Neymar scandal?

What exactly would have been More Than A Club's motivation in lying about the total amount of the Neymar deal?
Would the motivation simply be to trick Messi and their other star players so they wouldn't all demand raises (since that extra €40 would mean Neymar makes almost twice as much as Messi?)
Am I missing something?

been wondering this myself.
my best guess: they pretty much bribed his family into picking them. the third party ownership situation obviously complicated things. Santos is pissed at this news, which means they got short-changed. it's been reported by multiple people, including Balague, that Bayern and Real came for Neymar strong late in the game. perhaps paying more to the family on the side was Barca's way of insuring that he picked them, even if Real or Bayern may have offered a higher legit bid (giving Santos more money).
