"Brazilian football demigod Neymar admitted that Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi are his idols and he tries to learn something new from them every day.
Neymar spent a lot of time learning from L. Messi while playing on the same team. The Brazilian revealed that the Argentine is arguably the greatest football player of all time.
"Meeting both players is something special. I played with Lionel, so he is one of the best football players of all time and a true ideal in this sport," Neymar said in an interview with "Players Tribune."
"Being with Messi, I learned from him every day - both in training, playing with him, and watching him. It strengthened me and taught me new things on the field.
As for Cristiano, he is a monster. Meeting him on the field was both a pleasure and an honor. We had to be very careful when playing against him. He is one of the best in history. He is aging, but he only gets smarter on the field because of it.
Cristiano and Messi are two great men whom I admire because I can learn from them. I want more, I want to win, I want to fight for trophies, score more goals. So, I have to keep learning from them every day," Neymar did not spare kind words for the best football players on the planet.
