Is Neymar Worth The Gamble ?

Should Chelsea Take Such Huge Risk ??

 Earlier in the week Richard French highlighted Neymar as one of the more viable transfer options for Chelsea.

This is supplemented by the fact that during the past week reports in the media have been circulating that Chelsea are in the hunt for the Brazilian wonder kid.

If Chelsea want to sign him, it is likely he is special, f he is barely old enough to shave and Brazilian then he must be a really really interesting prospect.

It is reported that Chelsea made a bid for the 18 year old star from Santos, apparently this was turned down but the player’s agent has then clarified that that if Neymar wants to join Chelsea then he will do anything to make it happen.

This suggests that with persistence Chelsea have a fantastic chance at signing the youngster, However, should Chelsea shell out such multi millions to bring teenager who hasn’t even won a international cap?

 No doubt that spending such huge amount on teenager is a gamble but there are also positives. As he is still in his early stages of his career and yet to mature,, he will get plenty of time to adjust himself with the English game and the weather. 

 Also, we all know that manager and higher management are looking to build the team for the future rather than the present, as our star players move towards their twilight years in football.

Ancelotti brought Kaka and Pato to AC Milan and they have turned them into real world class players.

Therefore I trust Carlo Ancelotti if it is his wish to sign Neymar then we must trust he can turn this raw talent into a masterpiece., 

Neymar is really one of the exceptional talents of the game today, he has speed, skills, vision, can play with both feet and can play in number of formations as well as all the other requirements to become a star player, including natural Brazilian flair.  

This is the style that Roman Abramovich and Carlo Ancelotti must be seeking, given a chance Neymar could become a superstar and more than repay the clubs investment, becoming a prized asset.  

Yet  every coin has two sides, if we sign him and he comes to England then he will be considered as a celebrity even before he plays a single game, we all know what media is capable of doing.

The burden of expectations might cost him in the recent years few Brazilian players have come to Europe to play in England. There was of course Robinho but we all know what happened to him,

I believer there are many more positives and negatives regarding this transfer but I cannot spend all my days trying to convince you.

In short if Chelsea can sign him for not more than 25 million and give him enough time to adjust without putting any burden, then CHELSEA MUST SIGN HIM…… but only time will decide…….
