On social networks, fans shared videos of Neymar struggling and screaming in pain because of the pain in his knee. The ligament injury caused the star born in 1992 to have difficulty even straightening his legs.
Nicolas de la Cruz’s harsh tackle left Neymar with the worst injury of his career. After surgery, this player must take 8 or 9 months off the field before he can return to the field. This is the second time in 2023 that Neymar has had to go on the operating table. In February, he also had to go under the knife to completely treat the pain in his ankle. However, the injury at that time only kept the Brazilian player out for 4 months.
According to Brazilian press, even though he is seriously injured, Neymar still does not give up his passion for partying. Right before the day of surgery, the player born in 1992 called his friends to party all night. Neymar’s party also includes alcohol and hot girls.
After completing a record transfer in the Saudi Pro League, Neymar has not contributed much to Al Hilal, except for one assist in the SPL and one goal in the AFC Champions League.
Without Neymar, Al Hilal is still flying high in the domestic league with the leading position, 4 points ahead of Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr. The capital football team’s coaching staff is considering temporarily dropping Neymar’s name for the rest of the season to save a foreign player spot for another player in the early 2024 transfer window.
In addition, Al Hilal also receives 20,548 euros per day. This is FIFA’s compensation for the club whose player was injured while on international duty. This compensation will be paid 28 days after the player is injured and lasts a maximum of 1 year.
