The Brazilian striker continues to recover from a right calf injury and is only expected to be ready for the knockout stage...
Neymar will not be available for Brazil's second match at the 2026 World Cup against Haiti either, as he continues the recovery process from the injury that has kept him off the field.
According to reports, the Brazilian international did not participate in the team's training session after the team returned to training. Although the rehabilitation period is expected to be completed by June 17, the player still needs additional time to fully return to the normal training rhythm.
Brazil's coaching staff are keen not to take any risks with his fitness, and the current plan is to only feature Neymar in the knockout stages of the tournament.
This means that the Santos striker will not play in the match against Haiti on June 19. He did not take to the field for training today, after undergoing new medical examinations for the problem in his right calf.
The initial assessment of the medical staff for a three-week recovery period remains in force, but the best scorer in the history of the Brazilian national team must also go through the phase of gradual return to physical exertion before fully rejoining the group.
After a recent assessment of his condition, the team management has decided to avoid any possibility of a new injury and prepare the player optimally for the crucial matches. However, there is a small possibility that he could be used in the match against Scotland, but only if an urgent need arises.
