Forward Neymar suffered a torn knee ligament after competing for Brazil in the 2026 World Cup qualification campaign.

Al Hilal Club confirmed Neymar’s meniscus tear and damaged ligament in his left knee. He’ll be sidelined for six months after surgery. Many people believe that this player’s season in 2023-2024 is over.

According to the Brazilian Football Federation, “Brazil’s medical team, led by Dr. Rodrigo Lasmar, will coordinate with Al Hilal Club to have the best treatment plan for Neymar.”

Neymar has already been to the operating table twice this year. He had been out for five months due to an ankle injury acquired in March. The Brazilian striker had no big impact on the team in 2023.

Neymar’s injury from Al Hilal is terrible news. Since joining the Saudi Arabian club during the previous summer transfer window, the former PSG striker has only made three appearances and scored one goal.
