Fox Sports' list of Brazil's top 10 all-time football stars: Ronaldo at No. 2, Ronaldinho at No. 4, and Neymar at No. 8 sparks controversy

Ancelotti's decision to include Neymar—now considered injury-prone—in Brazil's World Cup roster has caused widespread dispute. With Neymar still nursing an injury, even after recovery, what level of stamina and performance can be expected? Thus, his place on the squad over Chelsea's regular forward João Pedro has ignited fierce discussion.

With the 2026 World Cup in the USA, Canada, and Mexico approaching, the five-time champions Brazil are set to pursue their sixth title, but fans and media are not optimistic about their prospects. Fox Sports, in anticipation of Brazil's World Cup campaign, has ranked the top 10 players in the nation's history. Pelé tops the list, Ronaldo is second, Ronaldinho fourth, and Neymar's eighth-place ranking has once again sparked intense controversy.

Fox Sports' ranking of Brazil's all-time top 10 players:

1. Pelé
2. Ronaldo
3. Cafu
4. Ronaldinho
5. Romário
6. Rivaldo
7. Garrincha
8. Neymar
9. Zico
10. Roberto Carlos

What do you think? In your opinion, which players are ranked too high or too low, and why?

Some fans argue that if we consider only technical ability, Neymar deserves a top-10 spot, but if we take overall contributions into account, it's hard to rank him among Brazil's top 10. There are a thousand Hamlets in a thousand people's eyes—everyone has their own view. Finally, best wishes to Ancelotti and the five-time champions Brazil for achieving great results at the World Cup in North America.
