Brazilian winger Neymar has offered fans a glimpse into his challenging rehabilitation from an ACL injury through a shocking video shared on Instagram. The injury occurred while playing for Brazil in October, shortly after his £86.3 million transfer to Saudi club Al-Hilal, where he commands an annual salary of £130 million.

Neymar’s entire season has been jeopardized by the injury, and the recovery process has been intense. Previous videos depicted him screaming in pain during the initial stages of rehab post-surgery. In the latest footage, Neymar is seen struggling to walk with crutches, navigating down a flight of steps, and eventually reaching the treatment table. Audible screams and cries indicate the physical toll of the rehabilitation process as physiotherapists work to restore movement to his injured knee.

The surgery has sidelined Neymar for an estimated six to ten months, but he expressed optimism about potentially participating in the 2024 Copa America scheduled for June. Argentina stands as the current favorite to defend their title in the upcoming tournament taking place in the US.
