But Jesus will be hoping the 31-year-old won't remember what he said about him back in 2019. The Portuguese tactician insisted Neymar wasn't on Cristiano Ronaldo's level and would never become the best unless he changed his mentality. Jesus told Globo Esporte four years ago: "For me, Cristiano Ronaldo is the best. "I don't have any doubts about that. He doesn't score 10 or 20 goals but 30, 40 or 50. "He doesn't need to be as 'artistic' as [Lionel] Messi. Everyone needs to look at Ronaldo. "Not just for his quality but for how he is as a professional, how he reached the level he's at. "It should be a lesson to any child who wants to play football. "[Neymar] needs to change the way he thinks or he won't get to that level. "If what you have away from the game is more important than perfecting your own play, you'll never become the best. "That's what Ronaldo has, the passion [to succeed]. That's the difference."
