Neymar, 32, came on as a second-half substitute in the 3-0 win over Esteghlal in the AFC Champions League Elite tournament last Monday . But he was forced to the bench again after just 26 minutes with a right hamstring injury.

Neymar moved from PSG to the Saudi Professional League in 2023 in an attractive deal. Neymar returned to action last month after a year-long injury layoff following surgery on his right knee.

Al-Hilal coach Jorge Jesus said earlier in the week that Neymar will be out for at least two weeks with his latest injury.

"Neymar will now undergo treatment and rehabilitation," Al-Hilal said on social media. It will take at least four to six weeks to fully recover.'

Reigning Saudi League champions Al-Hilal have yet to register Neymar for the current professional league. The new season of the professional league started last month.

However, the former Barcelona superstar has the opportunity to play in Asia's biggest club tournament, the AFC Champions League Elite, as a registered player.
