#1 Neymar gets advice

FBL-WC-2018-BRA-TRAINING — Training for World Cup

Former Brazil star Rivaldo has advised compatriot Neymar to leave Paris Saint-Germain as his chances of winning the Ballon d’Or will increase should he play at Real Madrid or any English club, with United also being linked.

"I think that going to Real Madrid, or to some club in England, I think he will have more chances [of winning the Ballon d'Or]," Rivaldo, who won the 1999 award, told Sky Sports.

"I mean no offence, but we know that the French league is not the same as the Spanish or English league, where there's more difficulty."

"I think he [Neymar] would have more chances to win the Champions League, so... when a player wins the Champions League, he has more chances of being the best in the world."
