[Saba Sports News] According to British media reports, Neymar’s family and friends have rented a luxury villa in Florida, the United States to watch the World Cup. Located in an upscale residential neighbourhood, the villa costs as much as 3,370 euros per day to rent. It features 16 rooms and is valued at approximately 12.5 million euros. Reports state that the property was leased by Neymar da Silva Santos, Neymar’s father, and lies around a 12-minute drive from Disney World. Part of the residential area is decorated with a Star Wars theme, including a life-sized replica of the villain Darth Vader. In addition, the villa is equipped with a games room, swimming pool, gym, basketball court, bowling alley and arcade. At the pre-match press conference ahead of Brazil’s clash with Morocco, Carlo Ancelotti gave an update on Neymar’s fitness. The Brazilian number 10 is recovering from a calf injury and will not feature in Brazil’s opening game against Morocco on Saturday, though he is expected to return to training next week.
The editor believes that Brazil called up Neymar not only for his undisputed technical ability, but also for his wealth of experience and the exemplary role he can set for the young players in the squad.
