Neymar Jr is one of the most enigmatic superstars in recent history. His playing style has been replicated by several fans around the world, but there are still several others who critique his professionalism and output. However, the Brazilian winger doesn’t seem like he would care a lot about that.

The Paris Saint Germain star has been great for the club ever since his world-record transfer to the French club. While he hasn’t managed to win the Ballon d’Or yet, he has given his all every single time he has been on the pitch for PSG.

Regardless, PSG fans expect a lot more from the winger as the club has not won the ever-so-elusive Champions League title that they have been chasing for years.

Neymar Jr could be a great goal-keeper

This season, Neymar’s PSG were knocked out of the competition by a rampant Real Madrid side in the Round-of-16 stage. PSG’s best player was Kylian Mbappe, who has been constantly linked with a move to Real Madrid. Maybe, their problem was using Neymar in the wrong position.

The loss did sting, but Neymar is still enjoying himself as he uploaded a video of himself “saving” a shot in his own bedroom. In a short video, the Brazilian winger could be seen diving on a bed and palming a ball away. Neymar took PSG keeper Keylor Navas’s name when he was celebrating, trying to emulate the Costa Rican shot-stopper.

Neymar was ecstatic after his save and might even put in a shift at goalkeeping in PSG’s next league game. The club has a lead of 12 points over second-place Marseille and is almost certain of winning the league, barring a miraculous meltdown.
