Neymar's Next Chapter is Off to a Difficult Start as Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi Continue to Lead the Way

News 18  

In what has become an all-too familiar sight, Neymar left the football field in tears after yet another injury. But the pair recently left elite European football behind, with the 31-year-old Neymar also heading to the Saudi league after years of being in the shadow of two of the sport’s greatest ever players. While his best years are clearly behind him, Ronaldo is still producing the goods on the field — leading Portugal to next year’s European Championship with nine goals in qualifying and keeping Al-Nassr in contention near the top of the Saudi league. Neymar’s team, Al Hilal, leads the way, but he has yet to make a major contribution on the field since his move, worth a reported 90 million euros — a record for the league. And even if he did break Pele’s Brazil scoring record last month, it still feels like he is in the shadow of Ronaldo and Messi.
