The former Brazilian forward Ronaldo Nazário, in an interview with Romário, shared his opinion on the importance of the Brazilian national team finding a playing style centered around Vinícius and Neymar. Ronaldo believes that Neymar is a fundamental pillar and that his quality masks the structural problems of the team and Brazilian football in general.
According to Ronaldo, Neymar needs more freedom in the national team to perform at his highest level and to be an inspiration for young players. He highlighted Neymar's personality and courage on the field. Regarding Vinícius, Ronaldo praised his performance at Real Madrid, although he pointed out that he struggles to perform similarly with the national team, which he largely attributes to the coach's decisions.
Ronaldo suggests that the best option for Brazil would be to have a foreign coach given the supposed inferiority of Brazilian coaches on a global level at present. He also mentioned that Abel Ferreira, the coach of Palmeiras, is a good manager. Regarding his future, Ronaldo reiterated his preparation to preside over the Brazilian Football Confederation, promising an efficient management, greater investment in talent development, and to position the CBF as a beloved institution in Brazil.
In summary, Ronaldo emphasizes the importance of developing a team that plays for Vinícius and Neymar, recognizing the value and potential of both as essential pillars for the future success of the Brazilian national team.
