Neymar Will Miss ‘Clasico’ Against Palmeiras, Facing Uncertainty Over World Cup Spot
Neymar is taking all necessary measures to secure his place in the upcoming World Cup.
In light of recent developments, Santos will have to compete without their star midfielder.
Details: As reported by Geglobo, 34-year-old Neymar will miss the Brazilian Serie A Matchday 14 match against Palmeiras. This decision comes as he is experiencing severe fatigue, exacerbated by the artificial turf at Palmeiras’ Allianz Parque, which raises the risk of injury.
Neymar is particularly concerned that sustaining an injury at this critical point in the season could jeopardize his World Cup aspirations. While Seleção head coach Carlo Ancelotti has yet to finalize the squad, Neymar is determined to secure his spot among those traveling to the United States.
Recall: Neymar faced boos from fans during Santos’ last match against Fluminense, which ended in a draw.
