⚠️ CBF confirms Neymar will undergo further tests | OneFootball

Brazil’s national team held its first training session this Wednesday (27) at Granja Comary, in Teresópolis, with a focus on the World Cup.

But without Neymar and Danilo.

The Flamengo defender started on Tuesday (26) and remained inside the training center, doing recovery work.

Meanwhile, the Santos midfielder — who is recovering from swelling in his right calf — underwent physical assessments, just like the other called-up players.

He will also undergo further tests on site. 

The CBF wants more details about Neymar’s real condition.

"The Brazilian Football Confederation informs that athlete Neymar Jr. did not take part in the Brazil national team’s training session held on Wednesday afternoon in Teresópolis.

The player was taken to a clinic in the city to undergo additional tests.

No further information will be released until the end of the evaluations by the Brazil national team’s medical staff," said the entity in a statement. 

Carlo Ancelotti will have three more training sessions at Granja before Sunday’s friendly (31) against Panama at the Maracanã.

In addition to Neymar’s likely absence, he will also be without the Champions League finalist trio of Marquinhos (PSG), Gabriel Magalhães, and Gabriel Martinelli (both from Arsenal).
