Neymar is the world’s most expensive player but he is still in the shadows of former teammate Messi and Ronaldo. He moved to PSG in search to become the main man but things have not gone smoothly so far. There is even a rumor he may return to Barcelona this summer. The Brazilian has a fantastic chance at the World Cup 2018 to show why he should be considered the best player in the world. There will be a huge amount of pressure on him to perform at his very best, but if anyone is capable of performing magic at the world most prestigious tournament it is him.

Neymar is the second favorite at 10/1 with brand new online casinos with attached sportsbooks to become the top goalscorer at the World Cup with Messi the bookies favorite at 9/1. Both players take to the world stage with a point to prove so it will be interesting to see which gains the upper hand. Messi needs to win the world cup to elevate his status to that of Maradona who single-handedly won the Italian 1990 World Cup for his nation. If he is not able to perform at his best for his country once again, it will be the one blip on his almost perfect career.

Neymar s in a fortunate position as the Brazilian team is packed with some of the world best players. It would be a shock not to see them reach the final and the bookies have them as the favorites with Germany a close second place. The team fell apart in the last world cup held in Brazil when Neymar was injured and suffered their biggest humiliation in the nation’s history. They will be determined to put things right this time around but it is not going to be an easy task.

Neymar suffered a metatarsal injury which put him out for three months. The injury happens at the end of February and it will surely have an impact on his fitness levels along with the form. He will need to overcome this if he is going to take his take all the way. Another problem is if he pushes himself too hard before his body is fully recovered and suffered a more serious injury.

Brazil has a favorable group which includes Switzerland, Costa Rica and Serbia. It is a great chance for Neymar to hit the ground running and score lots of goals. If they do not manage to get through the group, it would be one of the biggest disasters in the country’s history and Neymar could quickly go from hero to zero overnight. The player has been used to carrying a nation’s hopes for many years now so he will once again have to drive the team all the way to the final.

Brazil has had many of the best players that have ever played the sport, including legendary Pele. If Neymar wants to be considered the best, he will have to be outstanding to compete with the others in the history books.
