Nigeria/Brazil Friendly: I can’t wait to swap jersey with Neymar–Aribo
Rangers of Scotland midfielder, Joe Aribo has spoken of his excitement of facing Brazil in next month’s
international friendly and says he can’t wait to swap jersey with PSG star Neymar.
The 23-year-old also expects more of such friendly matches for the Eagles because it tends to bring out the best in a player.
“That’s the type of opponents I want to be playing against and it would be good to swap a jersey with one of those superstars.
“I’ll see so many stars and I’ll take a moment to realise that’s what I’ve been dreaming of. “Everyone in my generation loved players like Ronaldinho and he played with some of the players in this team now so it’s like ‘wow’. I didn’t think international recognition would come so soon but it shows the stature of Rangers and why it was a good decision to come here,” he said.
