The first tests carried out by Neymar brought some tranquility to the Paris saint germain and the attacker himself. He did not fracture his left ankle, but to get a better idea of the injury he will need to perform more detailed examinations.
The Brazilian was hit by a “Tijeras” by midfielder Thiago Mendes during the duel between PSG and Lyon, the last Sunday (13), for the League 1. He left the field crying and very worried.
According to the newspaper “Le Parisien”, Neymar will undergo an MRI on Monday (14) and other tests, which will determine the exact severity of the sprain and how many days he will be out.
PSG doctors are concerned that if it is a more serious injury to the ligaments, he could be out of the field for a few months. It is true that he no longer plays until the end of December.
The concern is that Neymar was in a particularly good phase, having scored four goals in the last seven games, being very important for the team’s return Champions League and qualifying for the knockout.
The former Barcelona player suffered two different metatarsal injuries in the first two seasons in Paris, in February 2018 (where he lost three months and 16 games) and January 2019 (three months, 18 games). Neymar also injured his right ankle ligaments while playing for Brazil in June 2019 and was out for two and a half months.
Regarding the match, Brazilian Thiago Mendes, a former São Paulo player, was sent off by the “scissors” – he caught Neymar’s left ankle with his legs – after consulting the referee at the VAR. On his Instagram account he apologized.
“Mistakes happen. But I’m here to apologize to Neymar.”
He was sent off at the end of the clash, which Lyon won 1-0 at the Parc des Princes stadium in Paris.
