Neymar Will Rise From His Slump


Big soccer tournaments come with big stars. This year’s Copa America has brought attention to Neymar, a Brazilian player who some even describe as “the next Brazilian legend”.  Although he is only 19, Neymar has demonstrated potential and talent to become one of the superstars in the soccer world. A few weeks prior to this tournament, Neymar shined and led his Brazilian club, Santos, to be the champions of the Copa Libertadores:

Although he has yet to play for a European team, it is said that Santos will keep him for a few more years to let his value rise and will then transfer him to a larger European club. Although Brazil failed to win against Venezuela and Paraguay in this tournament, and Neymar has failed to stand out so far, I feel that it is inevitable for a player with his talent to not have his breakthrough soon enough.
