Neymar could possibly do the one thing that Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo have failed to accomplish in their respective careers. He is looking strong and determined now, and has every chance to win the World Cup for Brazil.

The most expensive player in the world was stunning for Paris Saint-Germain during the 2017/18 season. He has scored 29 goals and assisted 16 more for his club in 28 appearances.

Though he missed the last three months of the season because of an injury, he has played some sublime football in the World Cup. He has already scored two goals and assisted one more for Brazil in the tournament.

If he wins the sixth World Cup title for Brazil, Neymar will definitely pip Messi and Ronaldo for the Ballon d’Or 2018.
