Neymar thinks that Carlo Ancelotti becoming the coach of the Brazil National Team is a good idea. The PSG player has said, in an interview with Bandsports, that this might bring lessons for the next phase.

It is reported that everything is set between Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) and Ancelotti, but it will not be made official until the coach can sign the contract, which is set to happen in January, six months before his run with Real Madrid ends. Until then, it is expected that the Italian appoints someone to work as an interim together with U20 coach Ramon Menezes.

“Brazil will have the opportunity to have a foreign coach, Ancelotti is a guy who has won everything, he will certainly teach us a lot. God willing, I"ll be there [in the next World Cup."

“I can"t say much, because I don"t know much either. I know he is the National Team"s plan A, the president [of CBF] wants to count on him, and we players want him there too. For me, for Vini, for Militão… we already know him, we know his greatness. Having him on the team will be very important. But nothing is confirmed yet. We hope that when his contract ends he will come to the National Team."

Memories of a footballer

"I"m a guy who watches very few football games, I almost don"t watch them. I like to play. So, the memories are of conquests, the good ones. The bad ones, the most recent is the defeat to Croatia", he said.

"A lot of them are also part of the sport, that"s how an athlete"s life is. When an athlete is successful, it is because he has had many highs. So I"m very proud of my career."
