Neymar will not travel to Philadelphia with the Brazilian national team for their second Group C match of the 2026 World Cup against Haiti. Instead, he will remain in New Jersey to finalize his recovery after overcoming a calf injury. The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) announced that Neymar trained with the team for the first time on Wednesday after a month-long absence due to a Grade II muscle injury. He is expected to be fit for the final group match against Scotland in Miami next Wednesday. Neymar has not played for the national team since October 17, 2023, due to a serious knee injury.
