Neymar has finally addressed the controversy surrounding his physical altercation with young team-mate Robinho Junior, offering a public apology following Santos' latest Copa Sudamericana outing. The Brazilian superstar admitted to losing his cool with the teenager during a heated training session over the weekend.
Neymar has sparked fresh transfer speculation regarding a sensational move to Boca Juniors after being spotted in Buenos Aires. The Brazilian superstar, who is currently back in his homeland with Santos, visited the Argentine side’s training facilities and left with a collection of personalised gifts.
Neymar was allegedly involved in a heated physical altercation with Robinho Jr during Santos training. There was "pushing and shoving" between the pair, and it has been reported that Neymar tripped the youngster in the Sunday session. Although the situation escalated, reports suggest the two players have since resolved their differences ahead of upcoming matches.
Neymar has been told he no longer possesses the intensity required to compete at the highest level of world football following his latest display for Santos. Former Brazil international Walter Casagrande has suggested that Neymar "doesn't deserve" a World Cup spot while claiming the forward would be an anonymous figure in a game at the level of Paris Saint-Germain's 5-4 Champions League win over Bayern Munich.
Carlos Vinicius endured a nightmarish evening in the Copa Sudamericana as he managed to miss the same penalty three times in quick succession. The former Tottenham striker, now back in Brazil with Gremio, saw a remarkable sequence of events leave him with his head in his hands.
Santos manager Cuca has jumped to the defence of Neymar following a quiet performance in the Copa Sudamericana, insisting the superstar is finding his rhythm in a bid to make Brazil's 2026 World Cup squad. Despite the frustration of a draw in Argentina, the Peixe boss believes his talisman is sharpening his tools just in time for the international stage.

Who has scored the most goals for Uruguay at World Cup Finals?
Uruguay have produced a glittering array of striking talent over the years, including Luis Suarez, Diego Forlan and Edinson Cavani. However, it's Oscar Míguez, who played for La Celeste during the 1950 and 1954 tournaments, scoring eight times, who tops the nation's World Cup finals scoring charts. A more modern-day star, in the shape of Fernando Muslera, holds the no.1 spot in the all-time World Cup appearances for Uruguay though, having played 16 times during three tournaments (2010, 2014 and 2018).
