The doctors warned me – Neymar gives injury update

Al-Hilal striker Neymar has given the latest update on his injury.

The 32-year-old pulled off with an apparent muscle injury 30 minutes after coming off the bench in the second half of Al-Hilal’s AFC Champions League win over Esteghlal on Monday.

The Brazil international limped off the pitch and had to be substituted.

The former Barcelona star was making just his second appearance of the season for Al-Hilal when he picked up the injury.

Neymar recently returned from injury after a year out with an anterior cruciate ligament injury.

Giving an update, Neymar, in a post on his Instagram story, said: “I hope nothing too much… It’s normal that after a year (out) it happens; the doctors had already warned me, so I have to be careful and play more minutes.”
