Real Madrid attacker Vinicius Junior is excited to play with PSG star Neymar for Brazil at the World Cup.

Vinicus Junior says he studied the game of Neymar, particularly how he handled rough challenges.

He said, "I learned a lot from Neymar when he played at Barca, he suffered a lot too. Cristiano Ronaldo, who was at Madrid, also suffered. But it was Karim who told me that I should be calm, beacause if rivals persecute you it's because you're good, they are afraid of you.

"Neymar went through a lot as a young player, having to play at such a young age with so much pressure. So he is the one who makes sure today it's easier for the new generation. It's important what he does as leader, he knows how to help us to have a great World Cup."
