Ahead of the crucial World Cup billed to take place in Russia, Ronaldo Nazario has offered to advise Brazil International Neymar to focus on his wellbeing especially now that he is recovering from a recent surgery after sustaining grievous injury. The former Barcelona and Real Madrid centre-forward who had similar problems in 2002 warned the Paris Saint-Germain ace to be cautious.
Speaking at an event organized by Nike, Ronaldo said;
"He needs to focus on his wellbeing and protect himself from the pressure as much as possible. I'm sure that his recovery will be much quicker than mine and he'll be at the World Cup."
On how far Brazil would go in the world cup he said;
"I've got a good feeling about the Brazilian team. They've been through tough times but the last few years they've done incredible work and gained confidence. Neymar's injury is unfortunate, but I'm convinced that he'll be back for the summer and we can count on other very good players."
Ronaldo also remembered the feeling of winning the trophy, as he did in 2002.
"It's incredible, fantastic, and unique. You don't work for medals because football is a team sport and winning is the result of a collective effort, the gift after all the effort."
Ronaldo scored 62 goals in 98 games for the Brazilian national team.
