Luis Fabiano: 'Neymar is better than Cristiano Ronaldo'

Sao Paulo striker Luis Fabiano has claimed that Santos striker Neymar is a better player then Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo.

The former Brazilian striker has admitted, however, that Neymar must move to Europe in order to surpass Barcelona's Lionel Messi.

"I think that because of not playing in Europe, I can't see him challenging Messi but without a doubt he is already much better than Cristiano Ronaldo. Not yet Messi, I admire him a lot and I have seen him play from very close," Fabiano told Sportv.

Neymar scored a hat-trick as Santos beat Sao Paulo 3-1 on Sunday.
