“I did not choose to be a superstar”

Neymar was a precocious footballer, used to having an unusual life. Famous since he was a child, he awoke the attention of half the world before he was of age, in his time at Santos: “I did not choose to be a superstar,” he has assured in a documentary that talks about his personal history. It premieres at the end of January on Netflix and serves to better know the person behind the cameras, common in their daily routine.

Neymar, the perfect chaos. A good sign that serves to explain the Brazilian player, who is in the rehabilitation phase of his left ankle injury. On Sunday he returned to Paris after several weeks in his homeland and PSG hope to be able to count on 10 for the knockout round of the Champions League against Real Madrid. A little over a month before that double confrontation, the Parisian team goes through a moment of doubts.

Neymar’s documentary can be seen from January 25 and has the testimony of some colleagues and friends from within the dressing room. Mbappé defines him as “one of the best footballers on the planet”, while Messi, with whom he already shared a first stage in Barcelona, ​​values ​​his attacking partner as a “fast and intelligent guy, everything he does is a spectacle” . PSG awaits him back for the Champions League.
