In the past, Edmilson, who defended the colors of "Barcelona", critically agreed to the news about the desires of the Brazilian national team's coach Tite to allow Neymar to maintain the team captaincy.
According to the former defender, the scandalous forward is not worthy of such honorable duties.
"In the announced national team lineup, you can see the surnames of players who have experience and have been team captains before.
I think the current period is not the most suitable to have such responsibilities for Neymar, but the final decision will depend on Tite," Edmilson said.
This summer, in the upcoming "Copa America" tournament, Brazilians will compete in Group A and will face Bolivia, Venezuela, and Peru eleven.
