As excitement reached fever pitch over the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, the spiritual home of football, Neymar da Silva Santos Junior was the man with the weight of the world's expectation on his slender shoulders. Built like a sparrow, with quicksilver feet and outrageous, ever-changing haircuts, he is the most unlikely-looking of heroes. But this Brazilian wunderkind has the world at his feet and can light up the tournament in the legendary yellow and green strip of his country. After the tournament, Neymar's already huge profile rose into the stratosphere. He is predicted to become the most marketable athlete in the world, and this book will be utterly unique in the market.
