When Neymar featured in a Real Madrid youth team with Carvajal LaLiga - Real Madrid Image from 2006 emerges

Real Madrid have long wanted to bring Neymar to the club and a teamsheet from his teenage years exemplifies Los Blancos' ambitions.

Back in March 2006, the Brazilian spent a few days among the club's La Fabrica academy and featured alongside the likes of Dani Carvajal and Pablo Sarabia, currently of Sevilla.

Former Madrid youngster Fran Sol, who plays for Willem II in the Netherlands, has posted a photo of the 2005/06 Infantil A squad, with all players born in 1992.

Neymar features but is crossed out, demonstrating Real's hopes of signing the youngster before negotiations stalled and he opted to head back to his homeland and play for Santos.

However history may repeat itself in the coming months as Madrid push to sign the winger from Paris Saint-Germain and finally get him in a Blancos shirt.
