Former Real Madrid coach Vanderlei Luxemburgo believes that Santos star Neymar does not need to move to Europe to become the best player in the world.
Brazilian legends such as Rivaldo and Ronaldo stressed earlier this month that the attacker will have to leave South America to further improve as a player and develop his game.
However, Luxemburgo feels a move to Europe is not a necessity for Neymar as Barcelona star Lionel Messi has only played on one continent as well, and is still seen as the best in the world by many.
"I think that Neymar can become the best player in the world even if he plays for Santos. There is no need for him to make the move to Europe. He can win trophies here as well, and there are great coaches here, too," Luxemburgo said at a press conference.
