Brazil captain Thiago Silva believes that Neymar is soon to be as good as Lionel Messi.
The Seleccao youngster has been in superb form this summer, scoring four goals in the World Cup – becoming joint-top goalscorer with his Barcelona teammate.
And the Paris Saint-Germain defender has insisted that it won’t be long before Neymar is alongside the four times Ballon d’Or winner.
“Messi is one of the best strikers in the world, one of the very best players,” he told a Press conference.
“But Neymar is growing into a crescendo and he will be soon considered one of the best in the world,
“Technically, he has all the skills. Messi is one of the best of all, but I’m sure Neymar will get to that level.”
