The World Cup awaits - Romario, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho and Neymar at 25

With the Barcelona star celebrating a personal milestone on Sunday, Brasil Global Tour looks back at three other Selecao greats at his age

On Sunday, Neymar reached personal a milestone by celebrating his 25th birthday.

Brazil’s best, the current poster boy of the Selecao has already achieved so much. He currently sits fourth on Brazil’s list of all-time scorers, having netted more goals for his country than the likes of World Cup-winners Bebeto, Rivaldo, Ronaldinho and Jairzinho.

Before heading to Barcelona in a mega-money 2013 transfer from Santos, he'd claimed the three state titles, a Copa do Brasil, and the Copa Libertadores.
