Neymar: Barcelona striker launches music career with new song Yo Necesito

Barcelona wonder kid and Brazilian National team play maker Neymar has launched his musical career few days ago. Neymar announced it on his Facebook page with a sond he titled Yo Necesito. This is what his fans are saying.

"Unbelievable. Neymar always breaks records in football as a positive and in music as negative," one said. Another wrote: "As a singer you are a very good footballer." A third added: "Continue with football, you do our ears a big favour."

However, one said: "Congratulations, beautiful music." Although his musical ambitions may appear a little left field for some, if he does pull off the transition he will be hoping to emulate the same chart success of fellow Brazilian football legend Pelé, who released his own album as well as a recent song called Hope.

The 24-year-old sports star, who once belted out the chart-topping song Ai Se Eu Te Pego on stage with Brazilian superstar Michel Teló, announced that he would be taking his career in a new direction following Barcelona's shock 2-1 defeat at home to Alavés. "

This Wednesday I begin my music career and I'm going to release my first song on Facebook," he told fans before adding: "We will have 'Neymusico'. Share it" Neymar is launching a music career
