Neymar Names Five Players Technically Better Than Him

Neymar Names Five Players Technically Better Than Him

Lionel Messi

Paris Saint-Germain and Brazil star Neymar has named five players in world football who are technically better than he is as a footballer.

Click through the gallery above to see the five players Neymar claims are more technical than himself.

The Brazilian forward is known to be one of the most skilful footballers in the world, although a number of opponents feel he can be disrespectful at times.

Neymar admittedly considers himself as one of their more technical players in the game today, but would not put himself at the top of that list.

In a recent interview with Oh my Goal, Neymar listed his former FC Barcelona teammate Lionel Messi and Eden Hazard among the five players he believes are more technical than himself.

"I don't know if I can answer that! With all the humility in the world, I consider myself one of the most technical players in football today," the Brazil star said.

He then went on to say: "Messi, (Marco) Verratti, Hazard, (Kevin) De Bruyne, I'm still missing one?

"More technical than me... Thiago (Alcantara)!"

Neymar is currently on international duty with Brazil at the 2021 Copa America, in which he will go head to head with Messi and Argentina in the final this weekend.
