Neymar's Injury Casts Doubt on Santos Future, World Cup Dream

Posted : 19 April 2025

Neymar's return to Santos was marred by a new injury that has raised serious concerns about his future with the club. After a promising start, where he marked his 100th match at Santos' stadium with an emotional appearance, the 33-year-old was sidelined due to a hamstring injury sustained during Santos' victory over Atletico Mineiro.

 

This setback follows a recent muscle injury that had already kept him out for a month and a half, and now, his current condition will keep him off the pitch for at least two months.

 

The club revealed that Neymar, after recovering from his previous muscle injury, had resumed training to strengthen his muscles. However, despite the efforts, he experienced discomfort in his left thigh during the match, leading to imaging tests that confirmed a new hamstring injury.

 

 Santos did not specify the exact length of his recovery but stated that Neymar would focus on muscle strengthening to avoid further issues.

 

Given the nature of his injury and the recurring muscle problems Neymar has faced, it remains uncertain whether he will return to play for Santos before the summer. If the recovery period mirrors his previous injury, Neymar could potentially return in early June, leaving him with just two possible matches to play before the European transfer window opens.

 

Neymar's injury could also jeopardize his plans to return to Europe, particularly with rumors of a Barcelona move circulating. While Barcelona's coach, Hansi Flick, acknowledged Neymar's value, his persistent injury troubles could complicate any potential transfer.

 

 Additionally, Neymar's dream of representing Brazil at the 2026 World Cup now appears in jeopardy, as his recurring injuries may hinder his chance to make the squad, despite his return to Santos with the intention of revitalizing his career.
