Neymar started his career with Santos FC and pretty quickly rose through the ranks of the club. He scored 10 times in the Brazilian top tier and from there it was no looking back. He took over the number 10 shirt and had worked his way to climb up the steps and almost got a club legend status at the club.

He scored galore of goals during his time at the Brazilian club and emerged as one of the most exciting youngsters in world football. He netted 17 goals in the Brazilian league and another 13 the next season followed by another 12 goals in 2012. He used to wear the number 10 during his entire journey with Santos FC.

He then moved to Spain and started playing alongside Lionel Messi. As Messi was the automatic choice for the number 10 shirt, Neymar occupied the 11 number to kickstart his career in Spain.

He soon became a formidable name and also was part of the famous MSN trio which included Messi and Luis Suarez also. He found the net 9 times in his inaugural season in the La Liga and then scored 39 goals in the 2014-15 season.

He continued his goal scoring traits in the next seasons too as he netted 24 goals in 2015-16 and another 13 in the 2016-17 season. He then moved to Paris and maintained his stature for PSG.

He has been wearing the number 10 jersey since he arrived at the club. When Messi signed for PSG last summer from Barcelona Neymar did offer him the number 10 shirt but the Argentine rejected his advances and picked up the number 30 at Parc des Princes.

He was initially handed over the number 11 for Brazil but after that, he has been wearing the number 10 for the national team. He was supposed to be the heir of Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo but hasn’t managed to follow their footsteps despite showing initial promise.
