Brazil: Thiago Silva absolutely wants Neymar at the 2026 World Cup

Neymar Jr appears to be increasingly hampered by injuries in recent months. Still, he always has the 2026 World Cup in mind. Thiago Silva has sent a message to Carlo Ancelotti.

Neymar continues his journey with Santos and is, of course, eager to return to the pitch on North American soil this summer. But Carlo Ancelotti has always kept this idea in the back of his mind, wanting to bring the best players with him for the international tournament. Recently, it’s Thiago Silva who has stepped up, expressing his desire to see Neymar suit up for the Seleção.

"If Neymar is fit, he has to play in the World Cup. Given his current level of play, he must be there. That’s not up for debate. When Neymar is on the pitch, it’s already a real headache for the opposition," he told TNT Sports.

Rodrygo’s injury could open up a golden opportunity for Neymar to shine.
