Vinicius looks up to Neymar: 'He is my idol'
Vinicius Junior did not pass up the opportunity to praise his friend Neymar in an interview with 'FOX Sports', in which he confessed that the Paris Saint Germain star is his idol.
"On the pitch I try to imitate many things he does. He always sends me videos of his moves and he says to me; 'do the same, kid'. On the pitch he does things that no one else can," admitted the Brazilian for Real Madrid.
And the things is Vinicius does not have a problem with admitting that he tries to emulate Neymar's gestures, dribbles and his play. But as well as the admiration that he has for him, they share a good friendship.
As well, Vinicius revealed that another of his idols is Ronaldinho. "I watch his videos and I learn. Neymar and Ronaldinho are two of my great idols," he declared.
The young Real Madrid striker seems not to hold any grudges against Tite for not calling him up for the Copa America. Tite finally decided to opt for Willian to replace the injured Neymar, who suffered an ankle injury.
