A year after his terrible knee and meniscus injury, Neymar has finally announced his big return to the pitch.
And the Brazilian could take advantage of the Asian Champions League match between Al-Hilal and the Emirates of Al-Ain to play his first minutes. One thing is certain: Jorge Jesus assures that he will not do just anything with his star.
“On October 18, Neymar completed a full year since his absence. He is still regaining his physical form and his level, and we are working step by step until he returns to the high level he practiced. Neymar’s presence has nothing to do with a maneuver or deception for the opponent. Tomorrow (today, editor’s note), Neymar is capable of playing, and every time I decide to play him, he is ready, but he is in the preparation phase and is getting back into better shape,” he said at a press conference.
