Neymar wants Barcelona to make a move for Cristiano Ronaldo

Simon Lloyd

Not content with having to carry the likes of Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi at Barcelona, Neymar is now suggesting his team bolster their attack by making a move for Cristiano Ronaldo.

Ignoring the fact that hell is more likely to freeze over than Ronaldo head to the Nou Camp, the Brazilian told Portuguese outlet A Bola that he’d relish the chance to play alongside him at Barca.

“I’m a fan of Cristiano; he’s a legend, one of a kind,” Neymar explained.

“It would be very good if he played for Barcelona.”

Ronaldo is widely expected to call time on his Real Madrid career in the summer, although staying in La Liga appears unlikely.

Paris Saint-Germain have been heavily linked with the Portugal star, and with Zlatan Ibrahimovic confirming he will leave the French champions at the end of the season, it seems increasingly likely that Ronaldo will spearhead their attack in a matter of months.
