Top 5 current domestic Brazilian youngsters who could be the next Neymar

#3 Maycon

A regular name on this season's teamsheet, clubs will be watching how the youngster progresses

Age: 20

Position: Midfielder

Club: Corinthians

Corinthians are no strangers to producing talent. Willian at Chelsea still talks of his love for the club that guided his development and with Arsenal continually linked with Bordeaux's exciting left-footed winger Malcom, both these players' styles and qualities are already evident in a player of a similar namesake grabbing attention: Maycon.

Maycon, we should stress, is not an attacker, but has slipped in based on his potential alone. Already somewhat established in the Corinthians team, it seems rather a question of when, than if, a big name European club gives the youngster a chance to showcase his excellent playmaker abilities abroad.

Whilst he appears comfortable sitting in the middle, creating play and offering the first line of defence, Maycon is also no stranger for bursting late runs into the box. Whilst his finishing can still be worked on, there is no doubt we have found a raw diamond here.
