Neymar fans have been waiting for a long time. To see their favorite star in the field of football. Finally, that wait is going to end for them. The Brazilian forward is counting down the time to return to field football after recovering from injury. He himself said when he is returning to field football.
Before this, Neymar was injured on October 17. After that he had to undergo surgery to repair the injury. However, he was not returning to field football. In the meantime, Brazil and his club Al Hilal did not get the services of this star. Both the teams have to suffer without the best footballer of the team.
However, Al-Hilal coach Jorge Jesus gave good news about Neymar a day ago. However, Jesus did not guarantee that Neymar will return to the field. Neymar himself announced the date of his return.
Al-Hilal will play against United Arab Emirates club Al-Ain in the Asian Champions League match tomorrow. Having some doubts about Neymar's performance in that match, Coach Jesus said, 'Neymar will board the flight to the United Arab Emirates with the squad for Monday's match. Today (last Friday) marks one year since his injury and he is currently fully fit. We will see if he can be kept in the XI for the Al-Ain match. If everything goes well, he will be in the list (team).'
Meanwhile, Neymar said in a video post on social media last night, 'I know you are worried, I am too. 21 October, I am returning.' On the same day, Al Hilal and Al Ain will meet in the AFC Champions League.
Later, Neymar's marketing agency NR Sports also issued a statement. It said, 'Although there has been no final decision on his return to the field, the number ten will be back in action on Monday. So that you can keep your career moving forward. Gone are the days of pain and suffering, from which there was a strong desire to return to football. He overcame it with the company of family and friends, as if he could always represent the number 10 jersey. Gratitude for the support of his countless fans around the world.'
Despite leaving PSG to join the Saudi club in August 2023, the star forward has only played 5 matches. In October of that year, he was injured in the 43rd minute of a World Cup qualifier against Uruguay. Then an ACL injury robbed him of an entire year.
