Brazil manager Tite has said he considers Neymar a major force in world football, suggesting only Barcelona's Lionel Messi and Juventus' Cristiano Ronaldo are on a higher level than the Paris Saint-Germain forward.
Neymar has endured a challenging 2019, as he missed a significant chunk of PSG's season run-in due to injury, before a separate problem ruled him out of the Copa America, which Brazil went on to win on home soil.
Despite not playing a competitive game for his club this season, Tite still called up Neymar for the upcoming friendly matches against Colombia and Peru.
