Neymar reveals his Champions League predictions as Santos star picks former club to take over from Real Madrid and lift European Cup

Neymar is among the finest players to have graced European football in the last decade. He has spent 10 years in Europe with Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain and won the Champions League title with the Blaugrana in the 2014-15 season. In 81 appearances in the European competition, the Brazilian has scored 43 goals, and he has now revealed who he expects to win the trophy this season.

Neymar left Europe in 2023, and after spending one-and-a-half seasons at Al-Hilal, the forward is now plying his trade with boyhood club Santos. The Brazil icon, however, continues to follow the action in Europe's premier club competition.

The 33-year-old first picked the semi-finalists, as he chose PSG, Real Madrid, Barcelona and Bayern Munich to go through to the last-eight stage. Neymar was then asked to pick the winners of the competition, and he chose his former club, Barcelona.

Neymar has been out injured since March 10, as the Brazilian picked up a hamstring injury. He has now missed a total of three games for the Brazilian club and two World Cup qualifying matches for the Selecao during the March international break.
