The Brazil international is not obsessed with his Argentine teammate, but is only thinking about improving his own game.
Barcelona star Neymar has insisted that it is not his goal to surpass teammate Lionel Messi as one of the best players in the world.
The Argentina international has been voted the game's best on four occasions in the past six years and is widely regarded as one of the best around in the history of the game.
Neymar has been tipped to challenge the 28-year-old for the FIFA Ballon d'Or this year following an impressive 2014-15 campaign, yet he has made it clear that he is focused on his own performances rather than trying to dethrone Messi.
