“Talisca is Better Than Neymar” – Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr Teammate Shockingly Put on a Higher Pedestal Than Al Hilal’s $418,000,000 Star

Al Nassr secured a resounding victory over Al Raed in the Saudi Pro League. Cristiano Ronaldo made his mark with a goal in the second half to put the match to bed. Following the game, a journalist expressed high regard for Riyadh’s Anderson Talisca, who was also on the scoresheet. Interestingly, he put the forward above Al Hilal’s marquee signing, Neymar Jr.

Al Hilal acquired Neymar on a $418 million contract in this transfer window. A renowned reporter, however, has highlighted the drawbacks of the former Barcelona forward within the realm of soccer dynamics. Additionally, he preferred Al Nassr’s Talisca over his countryman, raising eyebrows among fans and experts alike.

What did the journalist remark about Al Nassr’s star over the Brazilian maestro?

Saud Al-Sarami, the Saudi Journalist believes that Anderson Talisca has outclassed Neymar Jr in terms of performance as a player. The Al Nassr made heads turn after his remarkable long-range effort in the 49th minute, adding his presence on the scoresheet. Additionally, the 29-year-old Brazilian has been integral to the Riyadh outfit, without encountering any injury issues.

In this instance, Al-Sarami, while talking about Talisca and Neymar, said, “In all honesty, he is far from famous players, but for me, Talisca is better than Neymar. If Talisca & Neymar were put in the balance I would prefer to have Talisca in my team. Talisca is 28 and has not suffered from injuries in his career.”

On the contrary, Neymar had to potentially bide his time until September to make his debut for Al Hilal following an ankle injury sustained in February. Furthermore, the Brazilian star came off the bench against Al Riyad and produced a crucial assist for his teammate, in a game that ended 6-1 in favor of Al Hilal.
