Neymar Jr Injured

This week, Neymar Jr (34 years old) received great news: Carlo Ancelotti has chosen him for the 2026 World Cup. This is a dream come true for the Brazilian, who will be playing in the last World Cup of his career. To be part of the team, Ney willingly agreed to comply with the coach's requirements. In the meantime, he is seriously preparing with his club.

However, last night, Santos announced through the coordinator of their health center, Rodrigo Zogaib, that Neymar Jr is injured again. "Neymar is suffering from a minor calf injury, an edema. But, according to our plan, his recovery will allow him to be fit next week when he joins the national team." He is expected to be out for 5 to 10 days, which currently does not jeopardize his place in the selection. However, this is not a positive sign for a player who has often been injured in recent years. He did not participate last night in the Copa Sudamericana match against San Lorenzo (2-2).
