Victim of a cruciate ligament rupture on October 17, Neymar suffered martyrdom during his rehabilitation sessions.
The disaster: just one month after his debut in Saudi Arabia with Al-Hilal, Neymar was seriously injured for the Brazilian selection during a qualifying match for the 2026 World Cup against Uruguay on October 17. This time, it was the left knee that gave way. The verdict is brutal: rupture of the cruciate ligaments!
Nearly six weeks have passed since then, and Neymar, convalescing after an operation undergone on November 2, has already started his rehabilitation. Large bandage on the knee, the Auriverde star is seriously drooling, to the point of begging the medical staff to spare him in the face of the severe pain he may feel.
