Ronaldo believes Madrid would have been a better option for Neymar – Football News
After years of transfer speculations, the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Santos-c32532 star, Neymar, joined the Catalan giants, Barcelona. The deal was expected to take place last summer, but a few clauses in his contract asked him to stay for at least another
year. However, the young striker finally made a decision and joined Real Madrid.
The Brazilian star and legend, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ronaldo-c31734, has stated that he would have preferred Neymar to join Real Madrid. Ronaldo himself has played in the Spanish capital-based club and he believes that if Neymar joined Madrid, it would have
been a better option for him.
Ronaldo has also played for the Catalan side, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604, for a year during his career and during that time he managed to score a record number of goals for the club. While talking about Neymar, Ronaldo said that even though he
wished that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Neymar-c27639 joined Los Blancos, Barcelona are also a great side to choose.
While talking about Neymar, Ronaldo said, “I would have preferred Neymar to sign for Madrid. But that is not for me to say. With so many clubs after him it was difficult to pull off. But Barcelona is a great team and we know he'll
do well in Europe. For us Brazilians he is already a legend.”
After signing the Brazilian star and watching him play in the Confederations Cup, there is no doubt that the player has proven his worth to his new employers. With the likes of Lionel Messi, Neymar and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Pedro-c29582 Rodriguez in a single
team, there is no doubt that the Catalan giants can once again become a force to reckon within Europe.
Last season the Spanish giants suffered because they missed http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lionel-Messi-c22296 after his injury in the later stages of the season. This time, they have Messi and Neymar with their firepower in order to help and motivate the team win
bigger games such as the one which Barcelona lost 7-0 against the current European champions, Bayern Munich.
Barcelona are currently on a pursuit to sign a defender as they don’t have a permanent replacement for their club captain, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Carles-Puyol-c8331, who recently went through a knee surgery.
