Neymar reveals what happened with Lionel Messi every day at Barcelona

PSG star Neymar has revealed he learned every day from Lionel Messi while at Barcelona and described his former team-mate as his “football idol”. The Brazilian was speaking to The Player’s Tribune. "Facing Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo – and I played with Messi, who is, for me, one of the greatest footballers of all time, and he is my idol in football," said Neymar. "With Messi, I learned every day, whether during our practice, or playing with him, or just watching him play. And that made me stronger and it increased my capacity on the field because I kept learning a lot from him. "As for Cristiano Ronaldo, he is a monster. Facing him is a pleasure and an honour, but we have to be more prepared. He is one of the greatest in football so you get smarter, you get alert, but at the same time, you learn a lot, too. "So, they are two of the big guys that I can relate to because I want to learn, I want more, I want to win, I want more trophies, score more goals … so I keep learning from them every day."
