Santos boss Juan Pablo Vojvoda delivered an honest update on Neymar's latest injury setback after the forward's withdrawal from the Brazilian Serie A clash with Internacional. Neymar had just returned from a hamstring injury and was slowly settling in to playing again for Santos again, but a fresh knock forced him back onto the sidelines for Monday's game.

Neymar has reportedly suffered another injury setback as his bid to be part of Brazil's 2026 World Cup squad hangs in the balance. The 33-year-old had recently returned from a hamstring injury and just when he was settling in to playing again for Santos, the former Barcelona star is now set to miss their crucial clash with Internacional because of a new issue.

Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al-Nassr could beat Manchester United to the signing of Brazilian wonderkid Ricardo Mathias, with reports in Brazil claiming the Saudi club have made a formal approach. United had scouts track the 19-year-old Internacional striker last month, but their hopes of landing him may now be dashed as Al-Nassr look to add him to their ambitious project.

Manchester United have reportedly shown interest in Internacional's young forward, Ricardo Mathias, following a scouting mission this week. According to Globo Esporte, the Premier League club sent an official scout to observe the 19-year-old in action during Internacional’s Copa do Brasil match against Fluminense at the Maracana Stadium. Although Internacional was eliminated after the 1-1 draw, the performance of their rising star did not go unnoticed by potential suitors.
