It seemed that Neymar Jr. He would return just a few weeks after the serious injury he suffered a year ago, when he made his debut and played his first minutes with the team. Al-Hilal after his star signing. But it seems that everything has come to a sudden end again with a relapse that could keep him away from the playing fields… until 2025.
It was mid-October 2023 when he was injured in a Uruguay-Brazil qualifying for the 2026 World Cup. Neymar He suffered a rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee, which affected his meniscus and would force him to miss the entire season with his new team, starting in his first weeks in Saudi Arabia. After his operation, in the hands of the Brazilian team doctor Rodrigue Lasmarbegan his convalescence in his native country and returned a few months ago Arabia Saudi for its final stretch.
but when Neymar He saw the light at the end of the road, while his return was near, the latest medical tests carried out on the Brazilian revealed that something is wrong. The pace of his recovery is not as desired and Al-Hilal They consider that the footballer needs two more months of specific work to recover, before considering whether he wants to return to the field, which is why his return can be extended until 2025…
It should be remembered that the Al-Hilalwho paid for Neymar 90 million to Paris Saint-Germainwas only able to play five games for the Saudi club, knowing that his contract ends on June 30, 2025… For the moment, without counting the transfer bonus or the salary that the winger receives monthly, Al-Hilal It cost him every game he played. Neymar…18 million euros! And if we divide it by each minute played, a total of 386 on the field, the Al-Hilal paid more than 230,000 euros per minute!
So, if the information from the Saudi sports newspaper is confirmed Ariyadhia, Neymar He will be away for another two months and that means several dilemmas and some other problems for him. Al-Hilal. In total, it would take about 13 months, assuming he finally returns in November and it doesn’t extend any further.
Furthermore, it should be recalled that Jorge Jesushis current coach is not yet registered Neymar for the national parties, in order to be able to leave it without contesting the Saudi Professional League until January, when they will be able to register again, leaving them only with the possibility of playing minutes in the Asian Champions League, the AFC. For now, the Al-Hilal has a free seat that was reserved for Neymar although there is another Brazilian, the former colchonero Renan lodiwhich is not registered because Saudi regulations only allow the registration of eight foreigners over the age of 21.
In any case, since Al-Hilal or his own Neymar This bad news has not been confirmed in the recovery of the Brazilian, who in recent weeks had published a lot of activity on his social networks regarding his training, suggesting that his return was close…
