The Spanish star has praised the ability and rhythm of the Brazil international.

With his first season at his new club Barcelona recently interrupted by injury, Neymar has already demonstrated to his teammates what he is capable of. He has received the support his colleagues and the most recent to praise the 21-year-old was Spanish World Cup winner Cesc Fábregas who compared the ex-Santos star to the great Johan Cruyff.

“He reminds me of Cruyff. I was never able to see him live, but Cruyff has an incredible turn of pace, just like Neymar. Stop quickly and move again quickly. He’s also similar in the way that he moves the ball,” the 26-year-old told Gazzetta dello Sport.
