Neymar Injured Again in First Start Back at Santos

Neymar (Santos)
April 17, 2025 – forced off after 34 minutes vs Atlético-MG

Neymar suffered a left thigh injury in his first start since returning from a six-week layoff. He wore a special No. 100 shirt to mark his 100th appearance at Vila Belmiro but exited the game early in visible discomfort.
The 33-year-old required assistance off the field and received treatment with an ice pack. A full diagnosis is pending. Coach César Sampaio called it a “very important loss” and hopes it won’t sideline him long-term.
