Neymar Jr who has been out of action for several months, has been spotted spending his time with his family. The Brazilian superstar has been out of club football and for the nation since 2023 and out for almost nine months as he has not fully recovered from the knee injury, he suffered back in December. As a result, he has not been named in the Copa America squad for Brazil that is scheduled to take place in the USA in June.
The former FC Barcelona winger has had a long history of injuries and half of his career has been ruined due to the same fact. The 32-year-old footballer was spotted playing with his children at home as the video shows the first walk of his recently born daughter. Her name is Mavie and she was born in October to his girlfriend, Bruna Biancardi.
The couple has been in a relationship since 2021, and they were more low profile during their earlier months. They reportedly went public with their relationship on Instagram in January 2022. The fashion influencer was previously linked to separation from the footballer. However, they are still together despite the baseless rumours.
Here's the video
Will Brazil perform without Neymar?
The footballer was previously spotted in the King's Cup final supporting his team Al-Hilal who won against Al Nassr 5-4 in penalties and he was seen celebrating with his teammates, as he had not been part of the squad. He might be back in later September which will depend on how he recovers and does his rehab and quickly turns out to be fit for playing the game yet, again.
This will be the first time since 2010 that Brazil will be without the former Paris Saint-Germain forward as he has been a leader on the field for the side whenever he has represented the country. With the nation named Dorival Junior as their new manager back in February 2024.
