Al-Hilal Club announced, on Wednesday, that Brazilian Neymar Junior, the first-team football player, suffered a rupture in his cruciate ligament and cartilage.
Neymar left due to injury during his country’s match against Uruguay in the South American continent’s qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup finals.
The Al-Asmi Club wrote in its official account on the “X” social media platform: “Medical examinations revealed that Neymar Jr. suffered a tear in the cruciate ligament and cartilage, and he will undergo surgery later, and a treatment program will be determined for the duration after the operation.”
Rodrigo Pavia, the official spokesman for the Brazilian national team, said during exclusive statements to “Al-Riyadiya” earlier: “We have conducted all the tests on Neymar, but we must repeat them in the next few hours, and within 24 hours we will know how his knee responds, the extent of the swelling at the site of the injury, and its size in detail.” Then the final x-ray examination provides the decisive and final diagnosis.”
The Brazilian national team captain was injured while participating in the confrontation that his country lost to Uruguay “2-0”, in the fourth round of the World Cup qualifiers, on Wednesday morning.
Neymar, 31 years old, who participated in his 128th match with his country’s national team, left the field crying after the players of both teams surrounded him at the fourth minute of stoppage time during the first half.
