Brazilian soccer player Neymar is one of the world’s best. But he is not the best player on his team, Barcelona. That title belongs to Argentina’s Lionel Messi. Neymar, 25, started playing with Barcelona in 2013. His full name is Neymar da Silva Santos Junior. Before Barcelona, he played with Santos in the Brazilian league. He helped Brazil win a gold medal at the 2016 Olympics and was one of the top goal-scorers at the 2014 World Cup. With Barcelona, he has scored 105 goals in four full seasons. Working with Messi and other teammates, Neymar helped Barcelona win Spanish league championships, the Champions League title and the FIFA Club World Cup. But if he stays with Barcelona, Neymar will never be the team’s number one player. That is why Neymar is in the news today. His name was the top worldwide trending topic on Twitter and the top Google search in Brazil. Sports newspapers in Spain are reporting that Neymar is considering a transfer offer from Paris Saint-Germain, known as PSG, of the French league.
