The Barcelona star has made the prestigious 2014
list, which will be announced later on Monday, but he is the only player
from his country to be included
Barcelona forward Neymar has been named in the 2014 Goal 50, which will be revealed in full at 1430CET on Monday.The 22-year-old takes his place following his exploits for Brazil at the World Cup. The attacker scored four goals to take the Selecao to the semi-finals, but was sorely missed after suffering a fractured vertebra in the quarter-final victory over Colombia.
Neymar is the only Brazilian to make the 2014 list, as football's most successful nation pays the price for its spectacular 7-1 thrashing by Germany.
