“I’m not going to let myself judge the facts,” the coach said at the Brazilian squad’s training centre outside Rio, where they are preparing for the upcoming Copa America tournament. “Neymar is an extraordinary player,” Tite said. “From a technical point of view, he is indispensable,” although he added that did not mean he was “irreplaceable.”
Neymar is training in Teresopolis with his teammates for the tournament which will take place in Brazil from June 14 to July 7. Tomorrow, the five-time world champions will play a friendly in the capital Brasilia against Qatar.
