Neymar, Brazil holds his breath

Neymar's life is far from a long, quiet river. Victim of a new muscle injury with FC Santos, the Brazilian striker could remain far from the field until the end of 2025.

The former Parisian is expected to miss the next Brazil team rally for friendly matches against South Korea and Japan, October 10 and 14. The dream of seeing the Auriverde prodigy with the Seleção seems to be vanishing as we get closer to the 2026 World Cup.

“We have no other player like Neymar”

However, some do not lose hope, like Ronaldo Luís Nazário de Lima, says Ronaldo. The double world champion and double golden balloon addressed his compatriot, highly hoping for his return.

“He is a key player from the Brazilian national team. We have no other player like Neymar. And we hope it will be 100% of its form for the World Cup, because if it is, we will undoubtedly get better results ”R9 told the media.
