Neymar Injured in PSG Training Session, Raising Concerns for Brazil’s World Cup HopesNeymar Injured in PSG Training Session, Raising Concerns for Brazil’s World Cup Hopes Paris, France – Paris Saint-Germain superstar Neymar Jr. has suffered an ankle injury in a training session, casting a cloud over his participation in Brazil’s upcoming FIFA World Cup campaign. According to French media reports, the Brazilian forward twisted his left ankle during a drill on Friday. He was immediately attended to by medical staff and left the training ground with discomfort. PSG have yet to release an official statement on the severity of Neymar’s injury. However, the initial assessment suggests that he could be sidelined for several weeks. The news has come as a major blow to the Brazilian national team, who are set to begin their World Cup journey on November 24 against Serbia. Neymar is widely regarded as one of the most influential players in the world, and his absence would be a significant setback for Brazil’s hopes of lifting the trophy for a sixth time. Neymar has been in fine form for PSG this season, scoring 15 goals and providing 11 assists in 20 appearances across all competitions. He has also been instrumental in Brazil’s recent success, helping them secure qualification for the World Cup with an undefeated record in the South American qualifying campaign. The 30-year-old has endured a string of injuries throughout his career, most notably a fractured metatarsal that ruled him out of the 2018 World Cup in Russia. However, he has shown remarkable resilience in the past and will be hoping to make a speedy recovery this time around. The extent of Neymar’s injury will likely determine whether he will be fit for the start of the World Cup. Brazil will face Cameroon, Switzerland, and Serbia in Group G.
