The world’s most expensive player is trying to get healthy for Brazil’s next match
Paris Saint Germain and Brazil superstar Neymar is battling to recover from injury for Brazil’s last 16 match against South Korea on Monday at the Qatar 2022 World Cup.
The 30-year-old suffered an ankle injury along with right back Danilo when Brazil beat Serbia 2-0 in their opening Group G game.
Danilo is showing signs of recovering, but whether Neymar will be involved against the South Koreans is touch-and-go, team doctor Rodrigo Lasmar confirmed.
“Regarding Neymar and Alex Sandro, we think we have time on our hands and there is a possibility,” Lasmar told reporters after Brazil’s 1-0 loss to Cameroon on Friday.
“Let’s wait [to see] what their transition will be – they have still not started to practice with the ball and it’s something they will do tomorrow. It will be important to see how they respond to this new style, so depending on that, we will make a call.
