Neymar reveals EPL ambitions

Brazilian superstar Neymar has revealed that he had ambitions of playing in the English Premier League someday and admitted that he thought the idea of working alongside either Jose Mourinho or Pep Guardiola was an exciting one.

"I like the playing style and the teams. And who knows, someday, I would like to play there, yes. I admire Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool -- these are the teams that are always there fighting,” Neymar was quoted as saying by English newspaper The Sun.

"And then you have high-level coaches like Mourinho and Guardiola. These are coaches with whom any player would like to work."

The Barcelona star added that he loved the competitiveness in the Premier League and how unpredictable it could be after witnessing Leicester's fairytale triumph last season.

The Foxes fairytale continues as they join Barcelona in the Champions League last eight, seeing off Sevilla to line up a quarterfinal clash with Atletico Madrid.

"In the Premier League you never know who is going to win or who will be champions, it is always a surprise. Leicester are very good. They had a great season last year, they were champions and therefore we need to respect them if we draw them in the Champions League."

Barcelona booked their place in the last eight in sensational fashion when they thrashed PSG 6-1 at home, making Champs League history as the first team to overcome a 4-0 first-leg deficit, with Neymar netting twice and setting up the dramatic winning goal.

“Even today we keep on wondering what happened there because that night was a historical, wonderful night. We needed a miracle and the god of football gave us a miracle. We celebrated a lot in the changing room and the excitement levels were very high. Then I celebrated with my family and friends. With that game, we must celebrate, there is no other way. I couldn't go home and sleep."
