Neymar: Bayern switch a possibility

The Brazil international expressed his desire to play in Europe in the not too distant future.

Santos star striker Neymar has said he has the ambition to play for Bayern Munich in the near future. Der FCB came in the limelight after Pep Guardiola’s appointment at the German club. The attacker claimed that he is a big fan of all top European leagues including the Bundesliga.

The prolific goalscorer stated that Die Roten are a great club and have special players in their ranks. He praised Bastian Schweinsteiger as a top player and appreciated his passing, positioning and huge presence on the pitch. He also suggested that he was right to remain at the Brazilian side until now.

“All leagues are interesting in the end, including the Bundesliga. Bayern are a big club with extraordinary players. Playing for Bayern is something I could imagine doing. There is nothing that speaks against this. [Bastian] Schweinsteiger is one of the best players I have ever seen. It is the basics that make him strong: his positioning, his passing and his presence on the field,” he added.

“I dreamed to play in Europe since I was a child, but it is important I feel good and adapt with the rest of the team. [The transfer] doesn’t have to be Spain necessarily,” he mused.

“Messi, Iniesta or Ronaldo are on another level. They are role models for us, on the field and as persons,” he stated.

“As host country we are under pressure, of course. But maybe our fans will help lead us to success at the World Cup in our own country. [To win it] we have to improve our link-up play, but I believe it will soon be better. Personally, I have to improve my heading, shooting and possession-play,” he concluded.

Neymar hinted that he might not make a move to Spain. He conceded he always dreamt of playing in Europe.
