Breaking News: Neymar Will Not Be Called Up to the Brazil National Team

Star player Neymar is highly likely to miss the upcoming Brazil national team call-up due to a thigh injury sustained just before coach Carlo Ancelotti announced the squad.

According to sources from FabrizioRomano, forward Neymar suffered a thigh injury right before coach Carlo Ancelotti revealed the team roster. This news has shocked Brazilian football fans, as the star is very likely to be absent from the next training camp.

Neymar recently returned to play after a long struggle with a ligament injury in 2023. However, misfortune continues to follow the 1992-born player. This thigh injury not only directly impacts his performance at Santos club but also raises serious doubts about his timely return to represent the national team.

For coach Ancelotti, who is preparing to announce the official list, Neymar’s absence is certainly a huge loss. As Brazil undergoes a rebuilding phase, having an experienced star with game-changing ability like Neymar was expected to help the Selecao maintain their status in South America and aim for long-term goals at the 2026 World Cup.

Neymar’s injury once again brings back painful memories of his turbulent career. From the 2014 World Cup when he suffered a back injury before the semifinal against Germany, to multiple long-term absences at PSG and Al Hilal, the forward has never enjoyed a lengthy stable period. At 33, the physical and form pressures are becoming more challenging than ever.

Brazilian fans and the global football community are still awaiting the latest updates on Neymar’s condition. If Romano’s report is accurate, his omission from the upcoming squad would be a serious blow to Selecao’s ambitions and cast a big question mark over the future career of one of the world’s most gifted talents.
