Loosely translated: "Seeing the meaning of this tattoo may be a successful title for my work, in which we see a young Neymar remembering origins, place of origin and all the years behind us on the road, leading us to a place where we can all endeavour to achieve our dreams. To become a No 1 Neymar."

That truly is a masterpiece. The world's No. 1 sport is an inspiration to millions, and seeing a superstar like Neymar get this kind of artwork on him really shows what kind of person he is and how much he appreciates and loves the game he plays.

Obviously, the tough part for Neymar right now is that he tweaked his groin while training. His injury is deemed to be "small," and while there wasn't much more than that to go on initially for if he'd be ready for the Club World Cup semi-final December 18, a report has surfaced claiming he will, indeed, be good to go by then.

It's according to his father, as goal.com reported.

"It's an injury like any other, level two. It will take Neymar away for a week at least," he told ESPN Brazil. "They [Barcelona] had knowledge that some players would rest, especially in these games where the team does not need all the players.

"I believe in the final of the Club World Cup he'll be fine. It's a good time, but he will work out to recover soon as possible."

Neymar's father, Neymar Sr., should know best. He's talked with his son, no doubt, and that's a positive sign for Barcelona and Neymar fans alike.
