Neymar left Santos to join Barca in 2013. At the Nou Camp, the Brazilian striker won eight titles, including one Champions League, two La Ligas, one European Super Cup, two Copa del Reys, one Spanish Super Cup and one FIFA Club World Cup.

Neymar did not join the Brazilian team at the 2016 Copa America, where his hometown team was eliminated in the group stage. However, the striker born in 1992 will join the Brazilian Olympic team at the 2016 Rio Olympics on home soil.
