Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon has claimed that it is a travesty that teammate and Brazilian superstar has not yet won a Ballon d'Or in his career so far.

Neymar has been one of the best players on the planet for a couple of seasons now, but has always been behind Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.

MySportDab report this season, the award was handed to Croatia and Real Madrid midfielder Luka Modric.

Buffon, who moved from Juventus to PSG in the summer and missed the chance to play alongside Ronaldo, claims that its a scandal that Neymar has not yet won the award and also believes that he and Frenchman Kylian Mbappe will dominate the game for the next decade.

"I played with a lot of champions and I wanted to play with everyone, even with him [Ronaldo],” Buffon toldIl Corriere della Sera.

“But in Paris it's not like there are not champions. Mbappe and Neymar have that kind of pedigree.

"I tell Neymar that it's a scandal that has not yet won the Ballon d'Or and that he should be furious. He and Kylian have a disproportionate talent and can dominate for ten years.”

Buffon just trying to boost neymar's morale. Neymar is better than messi, Ronaldo or modric is the joke of the century.

Is it Ronaldo or Messi or Neymar. Ogbeni pick a side and stop confusing us

Neymar unlucky player,

Ran from GOAT shadow only to end up at 20yrs own

Who takes a buffoon serious?

hello nairalanders, brace yourselves, we've already been graced with the joke of the year, courtesy Gianluigi Buffon.

But Neymar has won an award that most footballers cannot achieve in the whole of their career.

The name of the award is Rollon d'Or field...

When you're in a big club, its mandatory to praise the star players ..so i'm not surprised at his statement

Now i see why your father named you 'buffoon'..

You are indeed Buffoon!

Seun eats more than Neymar!
Seun swallows Akpu, can Neymar do so?

He must be speaking futuristically

Buffon the jealous old man without a champions league medal
Over twenty years trying to win the trophy without success little wonder why you wanna beef our own champions league specialist.
Reason I respect Messi more than any other players on earth is that despite all he did last season he still said he knew didn't deserve to win last year's ballon D'or (mainly considering how his teams left UCL and world cup).

Ok

Buffon is smoking weed

Ok

Thats the Reason Neymar wants to return back to Barcelona

Marijuana is a bad something







Gigi Beht wai?

Buffon talking like buffoon.... In the same vein, I can say Chigozie Agbim is better than him..

By "ballon d'Or winners" he means Modrič

As far as football statistics are concerned, Neymar only trails behind Messi and Ronaldo. He shouldn't even be compared with Modric in the first instance because they're never in the same league. I could list 5 Centre midfielders whose stats overwhelm Modric's stats this season alone

All of You should go and ask Ronaldinho about Neymar.Football wey Neymar play for Brazil na him Mmbape de play for now come still win World cup. Okocha is is more talented than Kanu. But Kanu is a more decorated player. Smoke weed and get sense.

Not even up mbappe before talking of Lewandowski then salah, hazard before football God Ronaldo

Messi isn't worth mentioning cuz he is incomparable

Players, almost like Nigerian politicians, they all most always extol their own.

You will tell us Morata is the best player when you switch to Chelsea

Buffon sef

Oga you can change the goal post with him , he dive better than you

All these our football heroes already breaking their new year resolution of not lying. First, Ronaldo said he's not obsessed with individual trophies/awards. Now, Buffon is saying that Diving champion (Neymar) is better than the ballon d'or winners.
Abeg the year still early na
