Neymar is an extraordinary talent. Wherever he went, at Santos, at FC Barcelona, at Paris Saint-Germain or with the Brazilian national team, the striker left an impression on the supporters with his devastating passes and his swaying dribbles. But his training partners were also amazed. This Wednesday, Yacine Adli spoke about his career to YouTuber Zack Nani, and was full of praise for his former teammate.
“Neymar, when he arrived in Paris, the guy was an alien,” he said. Everything he did was extraordinary. He makes a pass, it’s extraordinary, he dribbles, too, he knows how to do everything. He has one possession, he doesn’t lose the ball. When we played small games, over 20 meters, it happens that we end up with three goals in advance, that a player scores two goals. Neymar, he scored 7-8 goals. The guy was a machine, I’ve never seen a player like that. »
For the player loaned to Fiorentina by AC Milan, the Brazilian must be mixed with the elite of world football. He is also, for him, one of the best players of recent years. “There are sometimes debates between Neymar and Ronaldinho but in all sincerity, Neymar is much superior to Ronaldinho,” he said. For me, he is just a little below Messi and Ronaldo. » His longevity, however, does not work in his favor since, at 32, Neymar hardly plays anymore. Victim of a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee, he only played five short matches with his club Al-Hilal.
