Neymar is the world's most expensive player for a reason. The uber-talented Brazilian achieved great things at Barcelona, learning from Lionel Messi, before moving to PSG for a world-record transfer fee of €222 million.

It didn't take long for Neymar to make the Ligue 1 his own as he immediately started terrorizing defences for fun. Despite missing months of action due to injury, Neymar played 30 games across all competitions for PSG this season, scoring a stunning tally of 28 goals and assisting 16 more.

The Brazilian superstar is, by far, the best footballer in the world after Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, and if he continues this way, he may just soon surpass the two legends. Neymar has returned to fitness and is expected to play a complete ro in Brazil's campaign.

Expect him to go all out during the tournament, cause winning it will certainly give him a solid chance at winning the Ballon d'Or and finally ending the Messi-Ronaldo duopoly.
