Messi hails Neymar’s humbleness

Barcelona star Lionel Messi has hailed Neymar’s humble attitude since his summer transfer from Santos, adding the Brazilian is settling in well at his new club.

There were question marks about whether Neymar and Messi would be compatible following the 21-year-old’s move to Camp Nou, but the Argentina international is pleased with the way things have been going so far.

“Things are going well with Neymar,” the attacker told CN23.

“He has adapted very quickly and has been received well in the dressing room. He’s a great guy and is very humble.

“The thing know is to get to know each other better on the pitch little by little and develop a special connection.”

Neymar has netted once in five official appearances for Barca so far, while Messi has scored five in four games
