Hello there, soccer friend. Tonight on Soccer Bedtime Stories, we’re traveling to Brazil. To the sun-soaked streets of Praia Grande, where a little boy with a squishy ball and a big smile would grow up to become one of the most famous footballers in the world: Neymar Jr.

From his early days playing futsal in small courts to lighting up stadiums with FC Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), and now Al Hilal in Saudi Arabia, Neymar’s journey is full of flair, joy, and determination. His style, known as ginga, made him stand out — a mix of rhythm, creativity, and love for the beautiful game.

In this episode, soccer-loving listeners will discover how Neymar was first discovered, why futsal helped shape his incredible footwork, and how he went from the beaches of Brazil to scoring in Champions League finals. From the noisy courts of his neighborhood to the world’s biggest football arenas — where the grass is green and the crowds are loud — Neymar’s story reminds us that even the biggest dreams can begin with a single kick.

✨ A perfect bedtime story for young football fans, especially those who love Messi, Mbappé, or Cristiano Ronaldo.

🎧 And don’t forget — at the end, we’ll ask you three fun questions about Neymar’s journey to see what you remember!

🎉 Special shoutouts in this episode to James, Nio, Rampa, and Jude — thank you for dreaming with us tonight.
