Neymar has fans concerned that he will be in no fit state to form part of Brazil’s squad at the 2026 World Cup, with a viral clip of the former Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain superstar in action for Santos leading to accusations of the 34-year-old playmaker being “done”. Neymar is still clinging to the dream of representing his country at another major international tournament this summer.
Neymar has endured a so-called “disaster” with Santos that could leave his World Cup dreams with Brazil hanging by a thread. The Samba superstar has returned to action in his homeland, having recovered from a knee operation, but failed to sparkle early in 2026. He needs to convince Selecao boss Carlo Ancelotti that he is deserving of an international recall.
Neymar experienced mixed emotions when making his return to action with Santos. The Brazil international, who is clinging to his 2026 World Cup dream, is back on the field after recovering from knee surgery. He is looking to play his way towards full fitness, with an eventful cameo appearance being taken in when stepping off the bench in a meeting with Velo Clube.
Memphis Depay slipped and missed a penalty in Corinthians' derby clash with Palmeiras in the Paulista A1 on Sunday, after an act of sabotage from his ex-Manchester United team-mate Andreas Pereira. Depay blew the chance to open the scoring from the spot in the first half, and Corinthians ended up losing 1-0, with Jose Manuel Lopez scoring the winner for Palmeiras in the 84th minute.
Neymar has officially commenced his rehabilitation program following knee surgery, marking the first step in his bid to secure a place in Brazil's World Cup squad. The 33-year-old was spotted at the Santos training ground on Thursday, looking in good spirits as he began the hard work required to return to the pitch ahead of the new season.
Neymar has flaunted his latest extravagant purchase on social media, revealing a custom-made Batmobile worth £1.3 million that he cannot even drive on the road. The Brazilian superstar, who is a self-confessed superhero fanatic, parked the menacing vehicle alongside his £10m Batman-themed helicopter and £37m private jet to complete a stunning collection worth nearly £50m.
