Barcelona keeper Valdes: Neymar scarier with mohawk

Barcelona goalkeeper Victor Valdes says Neymar is "scarier" when he's playing with his mohawk.

Valdes admits Neymar has settled quickly inside the Barca locker room.

"When I met Neymar I was accustomed to seeing him with his mohawk, he always had peculiar hair, he was radical, and I really liked it," said Valdes.

He added: "When he arrived here he was a bit more normal, he had Will Smith hair... and I told him: 'Listen Ney, I really prefer you Santos look, the mohawk - you were scary. You're scarier that way.' He looked at me and said: 'Give me a week, brother, give me a week.' And now he's got it back."
