forget is that when Neymar arrived in Barcelona, he was already 21 years old And before that, a lot had already happened in his career He had already played 225 official matches and had 198 direct goals In 2012, he was banned from playing the traditional silver medal of the magazine Placar Which awarded the best players of the Brazilian championship Because it was far above the other players A fact that had only happened once in history, with Pelé He had already won Libertadores, Recopa, Campeonato Paulista, Copa do Brasil and numerous individual awards In addition to being nominated twice for the award of best player in the world And even playing in Brazilian football And being among the top 10 in an opportunity We know that Neymar's career has always revolved around a lot of controversy And a lot is said about his choices, his positions and the direction that has been taken by the national team's number 10 But in this video, we will not focus on that We will focus on the period before he became the greatest goalkeeper in the history of the Brazilian team Before becoming the most expensive sale in the history of football Even before his arrival in Barcelona Anyway, let's focus on the beginning of one of the greatest talents in Brazilian football The emergence of another boy from the village Until he became the most expensive sale in the history of Brazilian football The period when Neymar was really the boy Ney Neymar was born on February 5, 1992 In Mogi das Cruzes, in the metropolitan region of São Paulo And it seems that if you were born on that day, you are already one step ahead to become a crack He inherited the name of his father, who was also a professional football player And who had his career interrupted for almost a year due to a serious car accident He was going with the family to visit some relatives in Santos Neymar was 4 months old at the time and was also in the car As they went down the hill, trying to dodge a vehicle that came in the opposite direction They ended up losing control Neymar ended up stopping under one of the benches At the time, his parents were terrified because they couldn't find the baby But nothing too serious happened And he only had a slight head injury His father had a serious dislocation in the pelvis After his recovery, he couldn't get back to his best shape And ended up being loaned several times Seeing that he had not been able to achieve the desired success with football And now with two small children He decided to end his career at the age of 32 They then moved to São Vicente, on the São Paulo coast To live at Neymar's grandparents' house In a simple neighborhood and in 9 people in the same house And it was there, at Baixada Santista Where he grew up and began to take the first steps in his career Some time later, Neymar's father went to kill the longing for football In a game with friends on Tararé beach in São Vicente He barely knew that that game at the end of the afternoon Would forever change the history of his family On that day, Betinho, a well-known eyewitness of Baixada Santista Who had even been responsible for revealing Robinho He was at the event and was amazed to see a 6-year-old boy running on the bench The boy was Neymar He ran from one side to the other He had speed, agility, strength Betinho then realized that the boy was taking him He went to introduce himself to the boy's parents And made an invitation to take him to play futsal at Utumiaru A traditional club in São Vicente Neymar then began to take his first steps in futsal Always accompanied by Betinho, who was his first coach As a coach, the boy began to stand out in futsal championships And some time later, Betinho went to Portuguesa Santista and took Neymar with him At that time, the boy was already in charge of the hall and field football Always being a highlight both on the court and on the grass And the first return that football gave to Neymar were the studies Fino, a coach at Portuguesa Santista, got a scholarship for Neymar And his sister could study at a private school in Santos In return, the boy would play futsal for the school team He played for two years the Copa TV Tribuna A championship with the best teams in the schools of the region And that was broadcast live on television on Saturday morning In the first year, Neymar's team was runner-up And even without the title, he was the highlight of the competition The following year, he took the team to the final again And this time he left with the trophy The team was undefeated champion And he took the prize of goalkeeper and highlight of the competition Neymar's performance really caught the attention It was then that Zito, a former player of the team and idol of Santos And then director of Santos football Went after Fino, asking what was necessary to take the jewel to the base categories of Santos The curious thing is that Santos didn't have a category for Neymar's age They then set up a sub-13 category Only to be able to take the boy to play for the Black Eagle A strategy that worked a little, right? Neymar then arrived at Santos at 11 years old And from then on, he started the Santos' sharpening No wonder the lightning strikes so many times in the same place Thanks to his talent well above average He started to skip the categories at Santos' base Even with an inferior age Because he was already far from the other boys And was heading for early professionalization However, his career at Santos could have been interrupted after two years When businessman Wagner Ribeiro, indicated by Robinho Took him to visit Real Madrid The businessman had a good relationship with Florentino Pérez Then president of Real Madrid He took Neymar and his father to meet the club that lived the Galactic Era With names like Ronaldo, Beckham and Zidane in his cast Neymar met several stars And did some training with Real's base The Brazilian's performance enchanted the merengues That quickly made an offer for him to stay indefinitely We stayed 20 days in a hotel because of Real He was approved in all aspects Offered a salary of 10,000 euros 1 million euros of gloves, house, school and job for his father Wagner Ribeiro told in an interview But if he shone with the ball in his feet The short period was also marked by feelings of a child That was far from home After 15 days, Neymar was missing home, his mother, his sister He then began to ask to return to Brazil Zito and some directors of Santos When they knew about Neymar's departure to Spain They went to contact the president of Santos, Marcelo Teixeira That quickly got in touch with Neymar's father Trying to convince him not to sign with the Spaniards And stay at Santos Even against some directors and Zito himself Who thought it was a lot of money to invest in the boy The president matched Real's proposal Bought an apartment for the family near Vila Belmiro And convinced Neymar's father to stay with the boy at Santos It was the biggest investment made by Santos by a base athlete in history Neymar continued to fly both at Santos' base As in the base categories of the Brazilian team And his popularity was getting bigger On March 7, 2009 In the game between Santos and West by the São Paulo Championship At 14 minutes of the second half With 0x0 on the scoreboard The coach Wagner Mancini answers the request of the Santos fan Present in Pacaembu And calls the young Neymar to debut in professional football At 17 years old, Neymar debuted professionally He didn't score, but played well and helped Santos to win 2x1 There began an incredible story of Neymar at Santos In his first year as a professional He helped to lead the team to the final of the São Paulo Championship But he was unlucky to find such a phenomenon in the final That scored twice at Vila Belmiro And the title was with Corinthians The following year was the year of Neymar's consolidation As the great name of Santos and Brazilian football No matter what team you root for At that time, you would definitely stop to watch Santos' games The team led by Robinho, Neymar and Ganso Marked the era in Brazilian football Santos won the São Paulo Championship And Neymar was the goalkeeper of the competition with 14 goals Including a goal against Santo André Which was nominated for the Puskas Award by FIFA Santos also won the Brazil Cup that year And with 11 goals in 8 games Neymar took another goalkeeper award from the championship home In a campaign marked by the dances and different celebrations of the Vila team In addition to the goals applied Like 10x0 on Naviraense and 8x1 on Guarani It was when Neymar had the biggest doubt of his career until then A proposal from Chelsea arrives At the value of 35 million euros A value practically irrefutable Even more so for the history of Brazilian football until then However, contrary to what we are used to seeing every day Neymar refuses the proposal of the English club Santos convinced his family that staying in the country would still be advantageous And presented them with a career plan for the next few years The offensive and beautiful football of Santos Enchanted the whole of Brazil And the duo of young Neymar and Ganso Stood out every day And gained the status of stars and dears of the country They even made ads on TV with the national team shirt Without counting the siege at the airports to each trip of the team They were even on the program of the game with the Santos team Such was the fame and charisma of the duo All this put a lot of pressure on Dunga and his commission For the call of the young Santos players for the World Cup That would happen that year The whole of Brazil asked both in the national team Santos even released a video of the players Expecting to be called However, only Robinho was on the list And Neymar and Ganso ended up staying out of the 2010 World Cup His debut was in a friendly against the United States team in New Jersey The attacker even scored on that day The first of what would be many goals with the national team shirt It was also this year that Neymar kind of forced FIFA To change the penalty rule Who does not remember when he punished the goalkeepers Making the famous stop That ended up being banned He then had to change his way of hitting And ended up losing some penalties Until in a game against Atlético Goianiense Neymar suffered a penalty and prepared to charge However, the coach Dorival Junior gave the order for Marcel to hit the charge And upon hearing the message, he did not like Dorival's decision Visibly nervous, he began to abuse dribbling in the sequence of the game Which led him to also discuss with Edu Dracena, team captain It was in this game that coach Renê Simões Who was the coach of Atlético Goianiense A day later, Neymar appeared in the press room of Santos And apologized for what happened Dorival took him out of the team in the next game against Guarani And also wanted to leave him out of the Clássico against Corinthians Which did not please the board Who ended up firing the coach Neymar ended the year of 2010 with 43 goals scored And being the main Santos name for the 2011 season Where the search for the title of Libertadores Was the main goal It was Neymar's first international tournament as a professional Who had just turned 19 And he did not feel the pressure The team distributed 15 Neymar's missions to the crowd And the crack after scoring a goal Celebrated by putting one of these masks on his face He ended up receiving the second yellow And was expelled from the match After Neymar's expulsion, the game was tense And the Chilean team almost tied at the end Santos won by 3 to 2 and stayed alive in the competition And after the arrival of Muricy Ramalho The team improved and ended up reaching the end of the competition Santos and Peñarol then decided the title And after a draw without goals in Uruguay Neymar left him in the next game And Santos won Peñarol by 2 to 1 in Pacaembu It was the first title of Santos Libertadores after Pelé Neymar was the goalkeeper of the team And elected the best player in the tournament In the second half, Santos seems to have taken his foot off the gas Neymar didn't He was still in an amazing rhythm And a game that was marked in this season Was Neymar's match with Bruxos in Vila Belmiro In a historic game with 9 goals Neymar scored twice One of them a goal that would later receive the Puskas FIFA Award Of the most beautiful goal of the year Santos opened 3 to 0 on the scoreboard But on the other side there was no one less than Ronaldinho Gaúcho Who scored three times with a right to goal under the barrier in a free kick Flamengo ended up winning the game 5 to 4 It was a show of two great talents of Brazilian football Two representatives of football art And from two different generations At that time, Real Madrid and Barcelona were fighting to see who would take the Brazilian jewel from Santos However, Neymar again surprised everyone And announced a renewal with the Santos team until the 2014 World Cup The season just didn't end better for Neymar Because Santos didn't see the color of the ball in the Club World Cup final Against Barcelona from Lionel Messi Barca won 4 to 0 with two goals from Argentina The confrontation marked Neymar's first contact with Messi They barely knew that they would make history together for the Spanish club a few years later However, he ended the season in style Besides being elected King of America The young Brazilian was among the top 10 players in the FIFA World Cup Even if he didn't play in European football A very rare fact In the 2012 season, Neymar reached his third title in a row Made what had happened to Santos last time in 1969 Neymar still took the awards of best striker, best player and goalkeeper of the championship Scoring 20 goals in 16 games In Libertadores this year, a game that was marked was the round of 16 Where Santos had lost the first leg in altitude against Bolívar by 2 to 1 When asked about Neymar's concern in the second leg The Argentine coach, Ángel Guilherme Royos, said I don't even know who he is It was better to stay quiet In the second leg, in Vila Belmiro Santos ran over Bolívar The Brazilian team won the game by 8 to 0 Neymar scored two goals Gave three assists And walked in front of the Bolivian defense In one of the celebrations Neymar made a gesture to introduce himself to the four corners of the stadium In response to the Argentine's statement I think from that night He definitely knew who Neymar was Santos fell to Corinthians in the semifinal That ended up winning the tournament's unprecedented title Neymar still finished as a goalkeeper of the competition Award that he had not yet won This year he also won the South American Cup After a tie in 0 to 0 in the first leg Santos won the University of Chile by 2 to 0 And Neymar, guess what? Left him and was elected the best player in the final Maintaining the average of two titles per year in the last three years In the Brazilian of this year Neymar achieved a feat that few players have achieved in history Be applauded out of the house by the rival fan The fact happened at the Independence against Cruzeiro Santos beat the team of Minas Gerais by 4 to 0 Neymar participated in all goals Made three and gave an assist And after the third goal of the crack The Cruzeirense fan starts to applaud him and shout his name He then recognizes and thanks the stadium That left in the background the suffered goal And only revered the talent of the young Santos player To have a sense of how above average Neymar was It was this year that he was prevented from disputing the traditional silver medal A fact that had only happened with Pelé He received the Orconcur prize Which is when the player is far above the others And could not receive grades or be elected as the best of the year in his position He finished the 2012 season with 53 goals And 27 assists in 60 games played The following year, then, came the moment that every Santos fan feared There was no longer how to hold a talent of this size here in Brazilian football We still managed to take advantage of Neymar here in Brazil Since more and more of our talents are going to Europe On May 26, 2013, he made his last game as a Santos player In Brasília against Flamengo A crack of the national level like him had to say goodbye in the capital of the country The draw without goals between the two teams did not matter Everyone knew that one of the great names of Brazilian football was leaving And who won the fight to take Neymar was Barcelona A club that historically has a certain connection with Brazilian stars He then became the most expensive sale in the history of Brazilian football In a deal that exceeded the house of 86 million euros He then said goodbye to Santos and the Santos fan making a promise I go, but I come back And if you got here, you will surely enjoy this next video But first, click here on this button below to subscribe to our channel And activate the notifications so you don't miss any new video that we post And in this video here next to it, we tell the story of a boy who left the suburb of Carioca To become the best player in the world And that shocked everyone with his talent Ronaldo Luiz Nazário de Lima The phenomenon So click here next to it that we meet there
