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

#3 Antony

Sao Paulo's Antony uses his plethora of skills to trouble defenders

Age: 19, Forward (RW), São Paulo

2019 Club stats:

Appearances: 31

Goals: 6

At just 19, Antony, a product of the famous Cotia youth academy, has already established himself as the favoured right winger for Sao Paulo this season.

A master of a creative trick or dummy, Antony relishes teasing defenders by slowing down the pace of an attack considerably on the right wing, before a quick dummy sets him off; quickly accelerating away from the defenders.

With a new contract signed until 2023, a release clause of €50 million has been included, Sao Paulo are well aware of the talent Antony possesses and the likelihood of a future move away from Brazil.

Antony boasts a powerful strike for a slender winger. Whilst his goalscoring ability is not his main asset, he does not shy away from cutting inside and taking aim with his left.

Whilst it may be an exaggeration to describe Antony as ambidextrous, he does display great competence at delivering often inch-perfect passes, crosses and indeed shots on goal with either foot.

As one of the more established players profiled in this list, Antony already lays claim to a growing trophy cabinet and the man from Cotia will be hoping to add some European trophies to the mix as his career progresses.
