After suffering a cruciate ligament rupture, Neymar will be away from the football field for 7 to 8 months

After being injured in the match between Uruguay and Brazil, it was confirmed that the forward Neymar suffered a cruciate ligament rupture, which will keep him away from the football field for 7 to 8 months.

"Stay strong Neymar", Messi sends a message of support to his former Barcelona teammate and 2022 World Cup champion with Argentina.

THEY WON'T BE TOGETHER

Both players will not be able to face each other on November 21, when the Brazilian national team hosts the 'albiceleste' in Rio de Janeiro for the 6th match of the qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup.

As a reminder, the last time both players shared a squad was at Paris Saint Germain last season, where the two South American forwards were criticized for not achieving important titles for the club.
