Hide the injury, Neymar becomes a problem for Brazil

Neymar has been embroiled in controversy ahead of the 2026 World Cup, following reports that he concealed the true nature of his injury.

The 34-year-old Santos striker was included in the Brazil squad by coach Carlo Ancelotti, following the support of several players such as Casemiro and Vinicius Jr.

However, Brazilian media reports that the player is suffering from a second-degree muscle tear in his calf, accompanied by bleeding and inflammation.

For this reason, Neymar is not expected to play in the friendly matches against Panama and Egypt, while the match against Morocco on June 13 remains in doubt. The striker arrived at the training camp in Teresopolis, but was unable to train with the group.

The situation has also created discontent within the Brazilian squad, with some players feeling misinformed about his fitness. Meanwhile, Carlo Ancelotti has been criticised for his decision to include Neymar in the final squad.

The footballer has until June 12 to convince the technical staff that he can be ready for the World Cup.
