The young forward has made it clear that he is fine
condition and has high expectations ahead of the new season despite Barcelona
revealing he has anaemia
Barcelona attacker Neymar has insisted that his health
issues will not cause him any problems during pre-season as the Spanish
champions continue their preparations for the 2013-14 campaign.
The Brazil international was diagnosed with anaemia - a
low red blood cell count - which can cause excessive levels of tiredness in
players, following routine blood tests this summer. leading to worries about
his fitness ahead of the new season.
Sporting director Andoni Zubizarreta already stated at
the weekend that the club are not concerned, though, and Neymar, who had his
tonsils removed a month ago, has now stressed that he is feeling fine, too.
"I am feeling just fine," the attacker told
reporters in Thailand.
"I have already improved after my tonsil operation
and I have no problems in training. I am getting better."
The 21-year-old then went on to say that he has high
expectations as the start of the 2013-14 season edges closer.
He added: "I have high expectations for myself and the
team. I hope to have a good performance in the next season. We will try to work
as a team to win honours."
Barcelona's first official match of the season is their
Liga opener at home against Levante on August 18.
