More fear than harm for Neymar. After his excellent start to the season with PSG, the 30-year-old striker is with the Brazilian selection for this international break. For the occasion, the trip is shorter than usual since Brazil are playing two friendly matches in France. A first once morest Ghana at the Stade Océane in Le Havre this Friday, the second once morest Tunisia in front of the public at the Parc des Princes (27/09).

In training at the Le Havre sports complex since the start of the week, the Parisian striker had a little scare during the session led by Tite this Wednesday. After contact with one of his teammates, PSG number 10 remained on the ground for several minutes, complaining of the knee. The medical unit of the selection administered treatment to him on the lawn. According to information from local media Globo Esporte, it is only a contusion and the Auriverde star was able to resume training without any particular worries followingwards.

Enough to apply for a starting place in Tite’s starting lineup tomorrow once morest Ghana. With 74 goals to his name in selection, Neymar chasing the record of Pelé, top scorer in the history of the Selecao with 77 achievements. The two friendlies will be an opportunity for him to approach it, even to dethrone it. Maybe at the Parc des Princes once morest Tunisia.
