It's a great day for Neymar! This Thursday, coach Auriverde Dorival Junior unveiled the list of 23 Brazilians selected during the rally for March 2025.

Back from injury since his arrival in Santos, Neymar returned to the group of the Seleção. The former player of Paris Saint-Germain and Al-Hilal returns to selection after a long absence. His last invitation and selection dates back to October 17, 2023. It was against Uruguay during a meeting with qualifications at the 2026 World Cup (defeat 2 to 0).

During this match, the number 10 was seriously injured in the knee, later missing more than a year of competition. But since his return to the country, the Brazilian star said that he wishes to find the national selection as quickly as possible and participate in the 2026 World Cup, his last big challenge with Brazil.

Neymar will quickly have to get to the level. The Brazilians will be brought to face Colombia (March 21) and Argentina (March 26) of Lionel Messi as part of the 2026 World Cup qualifications which will take place in the United States.
