The legendary footballer has advised his compatriot to leave his homeland in search of greener pastures in the Old Continent if he wants to become a worldclass footballer.
Former Brazil international, Rivaldo, has strongly suggested Neymar to consider moving to Europe in the foreseeable future as that will prepare him well for the FIFA World Cup 2014.
According to the former Barcelona player, Neymar needs a change of scenario as he has a great deal to learn ahead of him.
He stated that the forward has achieved a lot as a young footballer; however, he needs to gain a lot more knowledge of the game which he will gain if he moves to Europe.
Rivaldo exclaimed that familiar surroundings will not provide the Santos striker with exposure, so a transfer to a different country is massively important for him.
A number of clubs are believed to be keeping tabs on the 20-year-old as he has the reputation of being one of the most promising talents in the modern game. The forward has already established himself as a rising star and is expected to have a great career
ahead of him.
Neymar rose to prominence last season as his services were followed by several top-ranked European clubs. These clubs included http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786, Manchester United and Juventus.
Although there was no telling about where the future of the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Brazil-c2858 international would lie, however, Spanish giants, Madrid and Barca, were believed to be favourites to acquire the prolific attacker.
Latest developments have seen the footballer renew his contract with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Santos-c32532, in addition to claiming that his loyalty lies only with his current club.
Nevertheless, Rivaldo has insisted that Neymar must move to Europe in order to achieve a lot more than he already has.
"We all need some changes every now and then. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Neymar-c27639 must leave Brazil and his familiar surroundings. He should come to Europe in order to gain experience," Rivaldo was quoted as saying by Terra.
"We were already talking about the same matter in relation to players like Ganso and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lucas-c22528 a year ago. They will be there for the World Cup and need to move as well. These players have to make the move to Europe as soon as possible."
