Lionel Messi is confident he and new Barcelona teammate Neymar can together. Barca recently acquired Neymar from Santos after a long pursuit, with some commentators suggesting the Catalans may struggle to accommodate both Messi and the Brazilian forward in their XI.

"I know Neymar is a great player who is going to bring a lot to Barcelona," he said.

"God willing, we will be able to play together at Barca."
