Brazil coach Carlo Ancelotti has confirmed that Neymar is ready to return in the team’s final group stage match against Scotland at the World Cup. The 34-year-old forward, who had been sidelined with a calf injury, has not played in Brazil’s first two matches. Ancelotti said Neymar will train separately before rejoining the full squad and is expected to be fit for the upcoming match in Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium on June 24.
Neymar’s inclusion in the World Cup squad had drawn criticism due to his long injury layoff and recent poor form. Despite his absence, Brazil’s attack has performed strongly, with Vinícius Júnior scoring and assisting in the 3–0 win over Haiti, while Matheus Cunha netted twice. Vinícius and Cunha currently lead Brazil’s scoring chart in the tournament.
If Neymar returns as planned, Brazil could enter the knockout stage with added strength and depth, boosting their bid for a sixth world title.
