The Brazil national team is facing serious problems just before the start of the biggest tournament of the four-year cycle.
Details: According to geglobo, the news surrounding Neymar's health is extremely alarming and throws his participation in the World Cup into serious doubt. Yesterday, the star forward underwent an emergency MRI scan. Witnesses report that the Seleção leader left the medical clinic looking deeply troubled, visibly downcast, and barely holding back his emotions.
This injury is already fueling a major internal scandal. The Brazil coaching staff, led by Carlo Ancelotti, strongly suspects that Neymar's home club, Santos, deliberately concealed and downplayed the true severity of the player's injury.
Previously, the Santos medical department described Neymar's issue as a minor fluid buildup in his calf muscle, but the actual test results point to a much more serious diagnosis.
The worst fears of fans are starting to be realized: it has now been officially announced that Neymar will definitely miss the upcoming friendlies against Panama and Egypt.
Reminder: The CBF has completely shut down the clinic where Neymar is being treated, keeping the results of his examination classified.
