Neymar chose the most talented footballer, it's not Messi or Vinicius Jr

Several experts assure that Neymar Júnior has been the maximum exponent of being the most talented footballer with the ball in recent times. His speed, dribbling and his magic with the ball have helped Santos, FC Barcelona and PSG win championships. However, he has always liked to respect the hierarchies of the great players in history.

Neymar is a player who, when he is focused and not involved in scandals, shows his true magic in matches, which made him the most expensive signing in football history. Although the Brazilian mentioned that the player who inspired him to be talented was not Lionel Messi, Vinicius is still far from this legend that is Ronaldinho.

Neymar was part of the generation that grew up falling more in love with the ball thanks to the magic that Ronaldinho showed in every game. The Brazilian could invent something against a rival that delighted the fans of FC Barcelona and the Brazilian National Team. That is why Dinho won the Ballon d'Or twice and was Lionel Messi's teacher.

“Ronaldinho is someone who inspired me and not only me, but the majority of Brazilians. He was world champion when he was at Paris Saint-Germain. He has a wonderful history in football, he did unprecedented things and reinvented “Joga Bonito”, so it's a great pride that Ronaldinho is Brazilian. He is someone who marked football. I had the opportunity to play in some games with him in the Brazilian team and for me it was an honor," Neymar said in an interview with FIFA.

How big was Ronaldinho?

The Brazilian was Lionel Messi's teacher, Neymar said that he is his greatest inspiration, Ronaldo Nazario mentioned that she was his ideal partner, Zinedine Zidane called him a nightmare and Sergio Ramos as his most difficult rival. Ronaldinho is a legend because of his great talent, a footballer who gave away magic and who is respected by all the best players.
