Neymar had to leave the field by limiting the 2-0 Thursday victory against Atlético Mineiro, a new blow for a player who has struggled to have been in good shape for some time. An ESPN article reveals that the club considers that it will be unavailable for four to six weeks.
Neymar was injured in the previous cross ligaments in October 2023 while he played for Al-Hilal in Saudi Arabia, after having already experienced a series of problems with Paris Saint-Germain.
Neymar will be absent four to six weeks
Another injury to the hamstrings last year led to the breaking of his contract with the Saudi club, although ESPN reports that this new injury does not touch the same muscle.
Neymar is very often injured in recent seasons
The injury occurred during the 100th appearance of the Brazilian under the colors of Santos, shortening an evening of celebrations. Neymar wore a jersey with the 100 back number instead of the number 10, but was replaced after 34 minutes.
The Brazilian Serie A season has only been in its infancy, Santos seeking to find the highest level from its first season after a surprise relegation in 2023. The players took four points in their first four games and Neymar hopes for a quick return in order to be able to contribute to most of the season.
