PSG Announce Neymar's Expected Recovery Time After Forward Picks Up Injury on International Duty

Neymar will be out of action for four weeks after straining his hamstring during Brazil's 1-1 draw with Senegal on Thursday, according to Paris Saint-Germain's medical team.

The 27-year-old reached a century of caps for the Seleção as his side were held in Singapore, yet was unable to mark the occasion with a goal of his own. He was forced to withdraw midway through the meeting with the African side after pulling up awkwardly as he chased a long ball down the wing.

Neymar struggled with several fitness issues during the 2018/19 campaign, missing a total of 27 games for PSG in both domestic and continental competition.
