"There is no need to specially monitor his game – everyone knows that Neymar is very talented. But in modern football, it is important to be in excellent physical shape to realize this talent."
Sport24.az reports that the head coach of the Brazilian national team, Carlo Ancelotti, said this when commenting on the conditions under which Neymar could be invited to the national team.
The specialist emphasized that the star football player will be on the team in this case: "If he restores his optimal condition, he will be in the national team without any difficulty. Everyone wants to see Neymar in good physical shape. I talked to him and said: "You have time, recover and help the team as much as possible in the World Championship."
Ancelotti stated that he spoke with Neymar in the hotel before the game with Paraguay: "Our approach does not change. I would use him as a playmaker or a forward. He needs to play closer to the center. Because he can no longer be effective on the flank, in modern football this requires strong physical indicators. But in the center, in the position of an attacking midfielder, he can perform comfortably."
It should be noted that Neymar has recovered from his injury in recent days.
