Samba Boys, Brazil are starting to smile and this is because of news that forward Neymar is now training every day and his progress is “better than expected,” the national team’s physical trainer says.
The Paris St-Germain star, now 26, has been out of action for a while breaking a bone in his foot in a league game on 25 February but he was anyway named in Brazil’s World Cup squad for next month’s tournament.
“His development is better than expected,” trainer Fabio Mahseredjian told journalists. “The next step is full group training and then play games. Everything is being done for him to feel at ease.” he added.
Brazil play their opening World Cup fixture against Switzerland on 17 June.
